Septra Side Effects
SEPTRA may cause stomach upset, diarrhea, nausea, headache or vomiting. If any of these effects persist or become severe, inform your doctor. The sulfa in this combination drug may increase sensitivity to sunlight. Notify your doctor if you develop chills, fever, sore throat, easy bleeding or bruising, or yellowing of the eyes or skin. In the unlikely event you have an allergic reaction to this drug, seek immediate medical attention. Symptoms of an allergic reaction include rash, itching, swelling, dizziness or breathing trouble. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
How To Use Septra
SEPTRA: Take each dose with a full glass of water. If stomach upset occurs, it may be taken with food or milk. The liquid suspension form of this medicine must be shaken well before each dose. Drink plenty of fluids while taking SEPTRA unless your doctor directs you otherwise. Antibiotics work best when the amount of medicine in your body is kept at a constant level. Do this by taking the medication at evenly spaced intervals throughout the day and night. Continue to take SEPTRA until the full prescribed amount is finished. Stopping the medication too early may result in a relapse of the infection.
Septra Warning
Rarely, SEPTRA can cause serious, even fatal, side effects such as a severe peeling skin rash known as Stevens- Johnson syndrome, blood disorders (e.g., agranulocytosis, aplastic anemia), or liver damage. Stop using SEPTRA and notify your doctor immediately if you develop any of the following symptoms: skin rash or blisters, unusual fatigue, persistent sore throat or fever, yellowing eyes or skin, dark urine, or abdominal pain.
Septra Uses
This antibiotic is used to treat a wide variety of infections including urinary tract infections, middle ear infections and respiratory tract infections, including pneumocystis pneumonia.
Septra Precautions
Tell your doctor your medical history, especially of liver or kidney problems, asthma or other breathing problems, blood disorders and of any allergies you may have. Because SEPTRA may make you prone to sunburn, wear protective clothing and a sunscreen. SEPTRA is not recommended for use in infants younger than 2 months. SEPTRA should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. The use of SEPTRA is not recommended near term. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. SEPTRA is excreted into breast milk and may have undesirable effects on a nursing infant. Consult your doctor before breast- feeding.
Septra Drug Interactions
Tell your doctor of all the medicines you may use (both prescription and nonprescription), especially of warfarin, oral drugs to treat diabetes, methotrexate, oral PABA, phenytoin, methenamine, or cyclosporine. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
Septra Overdose
If overdose is suspected, contact your local poison control center or emergency room immediately. Symptoms of overdose may include nausea or vomiting, stomach pain, dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, depression, blood in urine, and loss of consciousness.
Septra Notes
SEPTRA has been prescribed for your current condition only. Do not use it later for another infection or give it to someone else. A different medication may be necessary.
Missed Septra Dose
If you should miss a dose, take it as soon as remembered unless it is almost time for the next dose. If it is nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule. Do not "double-up" the dose to catch up.
Septra Storage
Store at room temperature away from sunlight and moisture.
