Guest guest Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Dear Cheryl: I've always had plenty of UTI and never this reaction to any of the medications, but I almost always got Cipro for that. Are there any other medications that combined with Bactrim may be causing such a reaction? That is worth checking. There is plenty of medications that don't agree with another. Sorry I can't give you any better suggestions. Mojo Hi!
