I was prescribed Sulfameth/Trimeth DS 800/160. I have to take the pill 2 times a day for 3 days for a UTI. After taking my first pill the burning went away, but I woke up in the middle of the night with horrible abdominal cramps, worse than the ones I would get with menstruation. I also had headaches, neck aches, diarrhea, nausea and a wicked loss of appetite. I can't believe after all of these negative side effects the drug is still prescribed! I would rather have the UTI than have to deal with Sulfa ever again

I know how you feel. I am having the same thing. I went in for an ear infection on both sides of my ears. its called eustation tube dysfunction. They gave me Sulfameth/Trimeth DS 800/160. I have to take it twice a day. i have been having Nausea, migranes, fever, I started throwing up today. i couldn't even give my college presentation because of my constant vomiting. After all of that mess i have lost my appetite. Some nights i cant sleep because i get so hot. The fan in my bedroom does not even help. I advise people to not take this. Especially after what I am going through right now.
