Bactrim For Staph Infection
Updated
McCord75 Says:
Yeah I've developed a staph infection and I got Bactrim DS for it I got 30 tablets but my doctor told me to use it for a week and then stop using it and the pharmacist messed up and put on there take one tablet a day and I think it's supposed to be take two tablets by mouth once a day. So I mean I don't have any more staph infections or anything but they come back quite regularly so because I've got hepatitis c. So I know now that next time I need to take two bactrim a day instead of one.

It is always best to follow your doctor's instructions, since pharmaceutical errors do occur. If in doubt, there is no harm in calling your doctor's office to double check.
The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.
How are you doing, now? Has there been any change?
