Is It Safe To Take Sulphameth/trimethoprim For Kidney Infection?
I have a kidney infection and I have been taking sulphameth/trimethoprim with pain pills. I haven't taken my pain pills today and every time I try to move I have a shooting pain that starts about where my kidney is and shoots through my right lung to the top of my shoulder
