https://rxchat.com/Discuss/Sulfameth-Trimethoprim-Maximum-Dosage-218330_s2.htm?utm_source=forums_posts&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS Can Sulfameth Trimethoprim 800 /160 be safely perscribed for up to 42 days for prostate infections when Ciprofloxacin was failed to help. I have been on Sulfameth Trimethoprim for 28 days. It has really helped but I still have some symptoms of penis burning and perineum aching. I have been given a perscription to continue. I hesitate to continue another 14 day perscription but have had a complete sholder replacement two years ago and fear getting it infected. - Filed in Trimethoprim en-us Copyright 2026 RxChat.com.
