Bactrim DS is an antimicrobial combination of trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole, which is active against various bacteria. Clinically, it is useful for preventing and treating infections of the respiratory, genitourinary, and gastrointestinal tracts.
The usual dosage for adults in treating urinary tract infections is one Bactrim DS every twelve hours for 10 to 14 days. In case of renal dysfunction, a reduced dosage should be prescribed by the doctor.
For acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis in adults, the usual dosage is one tablet every twelve hours for 14 days. For the treatment of Traveler's diarrhoea in adults, the recommended dose is one Bactrim DS tablet every twelve hours for five days.
The recommended dose for prophylaxis in adults is one tablet once daily. For paediatric patients, the dose should be prescribed according to the weight of the patient.
Take the tablet before or after consuming food. Prefer taking it with food if it causes stomach disturbances. Swallow the pill with a glass full of water. You must keep on taking medicine as told by your doctor. Drink lots of fluids unless told to drink less liquid by the doctor.
Drink plenty of water while taking medicine to lower the risk of getting kidney stones. In general, the dosage is based on the medical condition and response to the treatment.
