Hi there, if you don't mind share with me what were your side effects or experience when taking Bactrim and Amoxicillin.
Which one you tend to tolerate more.
My side effect with Bactrim: Cleared up a UTI
My Side effect from Amoxicillin : Cleared up my lung infection.
Sometimes those side effects are just what the doctor ordered
TBF My Mom couldn't tolerate any of the"cillins", They had a heck of a time trying to aide her infections. I beleive they did an IV of some potent drug.

Oh yeah, I am also allergic to the "cillins" along with sulfa drugs. I think my Docs hate me!
I am prone to sinus infections and I had Bactrim once. I don't remember what it did but the effects were terrible. I will never take it again if I can help it.
Amoxicillin was given to me for a sinus infection and mostly it just didn't seem to do anything. I already had a headache and congestion, some dizziness, and all of that just continued. I wrote some notes to remind me that it felt the same as my allergies made me feel. So it was kind of useless.
I took amoxicillin for two months waiting to get an appointment for a tooth extraction due to covid. The drug gave me a canker sore flare up I got from taking inbuprofen a few months earlier. I had the gum sore for months until it finally has retreated a few weeks ago because I used almost every over the counter remedy I could buy and using salt and baking soda rinses. I regret taking amoxicillin for so long, I should have looked for another oral surgeon instead who would have treated me sooner.

Thank you so much.
I took Bactrum for an abscess.. Cleared it up, but did send my blood work a little wonky. Light neutrophilis or something like that. Knocked my neutrophil count down quite a bit.
Of course.. Then again.. it could have been the abscess that did that.
Why are you asking? Are you having an allergic reaction? If so, best to ask your dr/pharmacist.
I'm allergic to every drug I've taken, so have an asthma attack/red face rash, but... that might not be your reaction. Call your dr, if you have any reaction.
I don't respond to either of them. Every infection I have gets worse when I am on them. Respiratory, UTI, skin, dental; no matter what it is; if I take either of them, I get about 10% better for 12-24 hours & then I'm in the ER with a fever of 104 & disorientation.
Not a side-effect, not even thought to be possible but it's been that way for me since I was in my 20's, so now they are both listed as allergies.
