Take One Pill Every 12 Hours Of Smz/tmp Ds

I have to take it every 12 hours. I took my first around 11 am and I took one just now at 8 pm. Which is three hours early. Is that okay?

Hello, Heidi! How are you?

It doesn't have to be taken at exactly precise intervals, but you should try to keep it as close to the 12 hour spacing as possible, from now on.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this antibiotic as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
