Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim, the active ingredients in Bactrim, is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of infections. This means it will only help if your toothache is being caused by an infection of some type.

Have you asked a dentist?

Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, skin rash and diarrhea.
