For Bacterial Skin Infection "Today is my fourth day on Septra DS, 6 more to go. The first 2 days were the worst. My symptoms included nausea, headaches, lightheadedness/dizziness, and kind of shortness of breath. I was about ready to call my doctor or pharmacist to ask if I should stop the medication, but decided to give it a chance since I really need to get rid of my skin infection. Today, I have not felt those symptoms, so far. Hopefully, it was my body reacting to the new medication. I find Septra DS to be a powerful/strong antibiotic, I’ve never had symptoms like this with any other. After my complete course, I will re-post to inform if it worked on my MRSA."

For Kidney Infections "Prescribed Septra DS for kidney infection. I didn't have any side effects until the 4th day in, vomiting orange liquid, stomach upset & pains, lower back pain, side pains (both sides), super weak, super dizzy, lightheaded. I am so tired, and I keep having stomach spasms, insomnia. I was almost wanting to go to the hospital, but I hate hospitals, so that's not happening. I nearly also passed out while walking. My pet dog is looking at me funny. Like I made a mistake taking the pills, he's right, I did. Smart dog. Septra is horrible! I keep telling docs to prescribe Ciprofloxacin because of 0 side effects, but no one listens, so they give me this Septra DS stuff. Ugh."
