When To Take My Bactrim

I was prescribed bactrim for my UTI and it says to take it 2 times a day. Does it matter when I take the 2nd dose?

Yes, antibiotics need to be maintained at a regular level in your body to be fully effective, so you should take your doses as close to 12 hours apart as possible, according to FDA directions. Its typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
