Drug Allergies
UpdatedIf I was allergic to Macrobid or macrodantin years ago ( I don't remember what kind of reaction I had), can I take the generic form of Bactrim? I had to stop taking Cipro because of sores in my throat and a severe sore throat.

Hello, Carole! How are you?
Yes, this is a different antibiotic that is unrelated to the other.
The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.
Is there anything else I can help with?
Caveat: You can take it, as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you.
