A member asked:

Can you take bactrim ds and zpack together?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes and why?: There are no interactions with these medications. The Bactrim is commonly used for Staph infections or urinary tract infections. The Azithromycin is used for pneumonia - though it is not uncommon that the person actually has a viral bronchitis. It is not so common to have two true infections simultaneously. It would be useful to ask your doctor why? yourhealthforumbydrcirino.org (see post)

I was prescribed Bactrim DS for a UTI but suspect it is actually Chlamydia. Will a NAAT test work, or would it be masked by taking Bactrim? In either case, should I request another drug like Azithromycin? Thanks?
