So, the Dr put me on bactrim, and I have taken guifinasen (sp?) as well (my ears are killing me).. I have felt awfully weak the past 2 days since starting these meds...I can't hold my mouth/jaw shut, everything is just flat out weak.. obviously the sicknesses both aren't helping much either.. blah!
Thanks!

Hello Bny, I don't know what the cause of your symptoms could be, however, I will tell you that I ended up in the hospital after taking Bactrim for an infection. It turned out that I have an allergy, to sulpha (sulfa).
My husband is a specialist and he prefers his patients to let him know if they are experiencing any difficulties with medications. He said he would prefer that they contact him and it turns out to be nothing.
