Sulfameth Trimethoprim 800 160 And Sunburn Rash

I am on Sulfameth Trimethoprim and I was in the sun for short periods of time, and broke I out in a sunburn rash. Tried Benadryl but it never changed. Can this medication have caused this?

Hello, Nick! How are you?

Some topical aloe vera lotion may help soothe it, but otherwise, it will likely just take time, until it clears up on its own.

However, I'd suggest making sure to have it checked out to be sure that it's not an allergic reaction, this medication does cause them in many people fairly frequently.

Has it improved at all, yet?
