Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim, the active ingredients in Bactrim, is an antibiotic, used to treat many types of infections.

Yes, it can be used in children.

As to its safety, it carries risks, just like any other drug and only you and your doctor can decide if it is appropriate for her to use.

Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, skin rash and diarrhea.
