Sulfamethoxazole Trimethoprim Ds (Page 2)

I started taking Sulfameth Trimethoprim DS 24 hours ago. It is making me very sleepy, dizzy and slightly nauseated. Is this normal? I'm taking it for a urinary tract infection and I didn't feel this bad before taking this medication! Will it have this effect for 7 days or will I get used to it? I didnt go to work today, but can't afford to lay around for a week. Can somebody please tell me if they have this reaction and what did you do about it ?

You're having a reaction to the antibiotic. I was taking the same thing but for a spider bite.
After 5 days The fever started, felt dizzy and weak, my glands were tender. This is my third day off work. It's so debilitating. I keep popping Tylenol/Ibuprofen for these fevers I'm having. I'm weaning myself off it, but in the meantime I have to put up with the aide effects.
