A member asked:
I have a tooth infection amoxicillin his upsetting my stomach and i have crohns disease can bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) be used instead?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prescriber: Speak to the dentist who prescribed the amoxicillin. Different antibiotics treat different bacteria, and Bactrim (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) is normally not used for dental infections.
