hi everyone
i had a flare up recently and my doc put me on bactrim ds three times a day
ive travelled the country a bit and other doctors were shocked at such a high dosage, but my current doc insists it is ok
i trust her but i was just wondering if anyone else has ever been on bactrim tid or knows anything about it, id rather not abuse my kidneys...
thanks!

My doc puts me on the 800mg 2 pills 2 times a day. I thought that was high, I could be wrong but I swore I thought my old doc only had me take one pill 2 times a day but it was years ago.

I haven't ever taken bactrim ds 3x a day but when I get sick I double up my antibiotics. I usually take bactrim 2x (800MG/160 mg)and if I'm sick; zithromax (1 a day; 250 mg), or cephelexin (4x a day; 500 mg), or cipro (2x a day; 750mg).

I take 2 every day and have for the last 9 years...
The other antibiotics I usually have a supply on hand; just incase. That way if I feel myself getting sick...I can just double up after a call to my clinic.

PS- sorry. I know that doesn't really answer your question. I just thought that I'd throw out there that when I'm sick I get high doses of abx...
I attempted to look up info for you but only found this and I'm not sure how helpful it'll be:

I have never done that, but I am currently on Bactrim 1 1/2 pills twice a day, which after reading seems kinda high. But I am not having an problems (except that its not working very well...lol).
