HI, Panda! How are you?

Yes, from what I'm finding, Bactrim has been known to reduce the effectiveness of contraceptives, so there'd not be much point in taking them again, until you finish your course of treatment with it. It can continue having this effect in your body for 7 days, after finishing it.

Learn more Bactrim DS details here.

It may also cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
