Could Sulfamethoxazole Interfere With Birth Control Pills?
Hello, You can safely continue Sulfamethoxazole. Sulfamethoxazole does not interact with birth control pills. Only antibiotics like Tetracycline interfere with hormonal pills. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
