Does bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) ds cause weight gain?

No: Must be a coincidence, so one can look for other reasons for weight gain. Haven't heard of any antibiotics causing weight gain (unless a patient was so sick with an infection and was losing weight from being sick, but then got better on antibiotics and started eating normally again to regain her weight).
