Sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim - Is It Too Strong
UpdatedMy mom was diagnosed with a UTI infection. She was just released from the hospital after getting a plural catheter. She has been so weak and tired. Will this medication get rid of a UTI? And will it interfere with her current meds? I want to make sure it's not too strong for her. She is 91 and weighs 117 pounds.

What medications is she currently taking? I'm sorry, but I can speak to any interference, without knowing more specific details. Can you please post back and clarify? Thank you!
The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.
