I have taken trimethoprim for two doses and those havent been as close as they should have been over two days and not the full dose at that as I took 200mg last night and felt so horrible, with a very dry mouth, high high anxiety couldnt sleep and didnt feel well at all.. depite drinking lots and lots as advised when taking it
..I just was starting to feel better during today as if it was wearing out of my system and I still have the urinary infection so tonight I took half a dose (ie 100mg) and here I am sitting up into the night scouring the Internet for side effects or drug interactions that may not be on the leaflet with the meds, but maybe what I am having, as I feel exactly the same as last night, high high anxiety, cant sleep and dry mouth (very). I dont think I want to continue this medication and will call my Dr tomorrow for another antibiotic to clear the UTI.
Was quite releived when I came across this site with people mentioning high anxiety and very dry mouth and feeling plain awful!

WOW!!!. I'm in my 40s.. Ive been on various Bcp for about 10yrs due to a fibroid that causes me to bleed too much and I got anemic. I have been on Yasmin for a year-- and didn't like it so the Dr, suggested I try Yaz. So I did for 6 months.WHOA!! Major muscle tightness that got progressively worse-so much that I couldn't even bend over to tie my shoes. I ached all over, headaches and tired. I also had muscle cramps at the least provocation. I notice that the weeks I had my period and wasn't taking the pill daily, I felt much better. IM very athletic and as a former dancer was very flexible. Ive been of about a week and a half and really feel a difference already. I think Ill Detox and see what my body does. This is crazy.. Anyone else have this???
