Effectiveness
How Bactrim Ds Affects PatientsSulfamethoxazole is an antibiotic used to fight bacteria. It is most often used in combination with another antibiotic called trimethoprim, as this prevents bacteria from developing a resistance to the treatment. However, sulfamethoxazole can cause allergic reactions, ranging from mild rashes to severe reactions like Stevens-Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis. It can also cause folate deficiency in some people, and can lead to hemolysis (breakdown of red blood cells) in people with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.
How Bactrim Ds works in the bodySulfamethoxazole is a medication that works to stop bacteria from reproducing. It does this by blocking the enzyme responsible for converting a compound found in bacteria into folic acid, which is essential for bacterial growth. When the enzyme is blocked, the bacteria can't produce the folic acid needed for them to reproduce, resulting in a slowdown of their growth.
When to interrupt dosage
The prescribed dosage of Bactrim Ds is contingent upon the determined issue, including Urinary tract infection, Pneumocystis Jirovecii Pneumonia and Fluid replacement therapy. The amount of dosage is contingent upon the administration process outlined in the table hereunder.Condition

Bactrim Ds Reviews: What are patients saying about Bactrim Ds?
5Patient Review
9/5/2021 I'm a teacher and got a UTI from not being able to use the restroom during the day. I'm 51 years old and had no problems taking this medication. Our bodies can react differently to medications, so I think it's important to keep that in mind when reading reviews like this. The infection was really bad (there was blood in my urine), so I received an antibiotic shot first, and then this oral antibiotic. In just three days, I felt almost back to normal.
5Patient Review
9/23/2022 I'm using this medication to treat cellulitis on my arm and so far I haven't noticed any negative side effects.
5Patient Review
4/3/2020 This cleared up the infection in my hand quickly and effectively.
4Patient Review
8/22/2019 Bactrim DS is a great drug. I have allergies to many antibiotics, but this one was gentle enough for me. The worst side effects I felt were tiredness and a headache, but both went away after the first few days. This antibiotic cleared my UTI infection after just two days. It works quickly and is very potent. I would recommend it to anyone who is sensitive to antibiotics like me. You can be put on a 5 day regimen and be cured with this antibiotic.
4Patient Review
9/18/2022 Bactrim was a very effective antibiotic for me, and I experienced few negative side effects. The only issue I had was that the pills were extremely large.

8/26/2020 I'm not a fan of this medication. It's 1:30 in the morning and my jaw is killing me. I feels like it's stuck shut, and my arms are very sensitive. I feel weak and dizzy, and this feeling has lasted for days.
2Patient Review

1.7Patient Review
10/1/2022 Do your best to steer clear of this antibiotic. It caused me immense nausea and diarrhea within the first week, to the point where I had to take Gravol just to make it through the day. Additionally, it made me feel exhausted and my heart rate was all over the place.
1.7Patient Review
