Hi Dana,
Based on my research, your child is most likely having a potentially serious allergic reaction to the medication. I read that if you notice any of the following side effects from SMZ-TMP you should get medical help right away:
skin rash/blisters, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), persistent sore throat or fever, paleness, joint pain/aches, persistent cough, trouble breathing, easy bleeding/bruising, yellowing eyes or skin, persistent nausea/vomiting, unusual fatigue, dark urine.
You can learn more about this drug on the page for Sulfamethoxazole + Trimethoprim, SMX-TMP Details
I hope this helps, good luck!
