User Reviews for Sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim

Bactrim DS (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I've been using this product for a little over a week now and already my skin is clearing up! I've dealt with acne and post-acne scarring for about 3 years now. I am 16 and I'm so glad i found something thats working! I used it along with finacea (azelaic acid) and my skin just keeps improving!

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I've struggled with acne for years and began using bactrim and it has helped me tremendously. I don't have breakouts anymore.

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): Bactrim is the only thing to ever get rid of my acne.

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): Bactrim takes about a week before you see the changes. You must stay on the medicine or the acne will come back within two to three days of stopping.

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I've been on Bactrim for years now to control my acne. I get some breakouts but not nearly as bad as it was before.

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): Worked wonders for my acne. Amazing. Years of living with acne and this $3 a month medication clears me right up. Love it!

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): My dermatologist put me on this and Aczone. I was 85% clear in just two weeks! I'm over 30.

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I have used solydyne in the past, two different dosages. They worked at first then stopped working. Again they the increased dosage, even that stopped working. Then i was put on bactrim. The nice thing about bactrim for me was that it worked every time you use. I was give a strong prescription 100mg twice daily. And then 50mg twice daily for an year. The nice thing about bactrim is you see it working. The acne where it used to be becomes dried out and you feel that the meds are working. With others i have seen it disappear and then appear again. With bactrim it was just really clean. I have recently started doxycyline and it has not worked so far. Not a bit. It does seemed working the first week but not any more.

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I have horrible hormonal acne and Bactrim has been the only systemic drug that has helped. Problem is I took it for years, randomly when needed. After years of usage, oddly I became allergic to it. I broke out in large red spots that were extremely sensitive. It's a serious allergy. I have permanent dark bruises all over my body and it has been years since I've used it. If you haven't tried Bactrim. Try it. It will work for you.

Septra (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): Septra has worked wonders on my skin, within a week of taking it, my skin has gotten less oily, and my cystic acne is going away.

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): My doctor put me on Bactrim and Aczone. Together this works wonders! I suffered from somewhat severe acne until this. I started taking it..the first 2-3 weeks I flared up but once the fourth week hit, my face was completed clear. I would strongly recommend this to anyone who has acne problems.

Bactrim DS (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I've been using Bactrim DS for the past 2 months now, and it has definitely cleared up my skin. I plan on using it for another 4 months, and then switching to another antibiotics if need be so I don't build immunity to it.

SMZ-TMP DS (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I was prescribed this for my acne along with several other creams and within a month my mild acne problem was cleared up, but if I stopped taking the pills completely I would break out so instead I slowly went off the medicines and now I'm taking one every other day and have clear skin. This medicine works wonders.

sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim: I had pretty severe side effects related to this medicine (I have no known problems with medications, so this was unusual). Symptoms did not appear until MONTHS of taking this medication. Side effects included: heart palpitations (like a "fight or flight" response...frequently, without cause) nausea, and overall tiredness (my body felt heavy), depression. It took me a long time to figure out this was due to this drug. It was a really terrible few months for me. Side effects stopped within 2-4 weeks after discontinuing this medication. On the plus side, this medicine was the most effective for my acne. My skin really cleared up tremendously. Not worth it though.

Septra (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): This medicine has done only good things for me. I have taken it for about 3 weeks now. It cleared up my moderately severe acne very quickly no negative side effects. The only side effect I had was decreased appetite which I was not opposed to as I usually eat too much anyway!

Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I've had acne for years... this is the only medicine that works. Weird thing is, new dermatologist tried to talk me out of it, but wouldn't tell me why. I basically told her that if she didn't want to prescribe it, I would just go back to the doctor who did. At 41 years old, I know what works for me. Another interesting side effect - I used to get ear infections and strep throat on a regular basis until starting this... haven't had either in years !

sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim: This is the only antibiotic that really works at clearing up my skin. It doesn't give me stomach problems like other antibiotics. Another great thing about Bactrim is that there's no weird restrictions about when/what you can eat when taking it - no "I can't have a bowl of ice cream because I just took my medication for the night" like when you take minocycline. You also don't have to worry about being out in the sun while taking it (yeah, I know, tanning is bad). Unfortunately, it is a pretty strong antibiotic, so my dermatologist has cut me off (she thinks it is the cause of a cyst on my lip.

Bactrim DS (sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim): I have used this for about 3 wks now and I have more pimples now then when I started. The only thing I have noticed is that pimples are not as large when I am on this. I am going to keep at it for a few more weeks to see what happens. I have had this same response on other antibiotics
