Sulfameth Tmp Ds Tab Side Effects Skin Rash

I woke up this morning with a skin rash on my arms, stomach, and thighs. So far I have taken 5 sulfamethoxazole tmp ds tablets. One pill twice a day. I know rash is a side effect. I have one pill remaining, is it ok to take the last pill

Not being your doctor, I cannot tell you if it is ok to take the pill(s) or not. However my opinion is if this is your last pill, you should finish taking it as prescribed by your doctor; unless the side effects become more severe or if your complication has been taken care of already by the medication. Based on your description of the rash it sounds like it is severe, but it is really up to you if you feel the need to contact your doctor for advice.

Again, your decision should probably be based on whether or not the side effects are too much for you to handle as this medication does have a lot of side effects. So just be cautious of what your body can handle, since you only have 1 pill left. Hope this helps!
