Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi there I have taken Trimethoprim many times previously in short courses of 3 days with no effects whatsoever, I have had to have a couple of 7 day course recently which have just been completed and now I have to start a low dose course for up to a year . 100mgs per day. I have started with tinnitus , I have frequent tension like headaches. When I have the lower dose might these symptoms relieve. Many thanks

Does Trimethoprim Cause Tinnitus And Headaches?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. There is no use or concept of a low dose antibiotic decreasing its side effects. It may reduce the severity but the antibiotic may not work. Wishing you best of health. Thanks.
