Having had a recent bladder infection, (one of many over the last few years) I was prescribed Trimethoprim, I became so ill that after three days I stopped taking them and researched the side effects others had exprienced, to my horror I soon discovered that the tablets were not for me.
While I understand that all medication comes with warnings about about side effect of using them, if we didnt trust our own personal Doctors we really wouldn't take any of them!
No Doctor is an expert in every field of medicine, why would you consult a Heart Specialist if you had a Kidney problem.
We put our trust and our lives in the hands of Doctors, thank God we have them to turn to,but even Doctors make mistakes.
Having had many forms of antibiotics over the years......my opinion is think twice before taking Trimethoprim!
