What Causes Breathing Difficulty After Taking Sulfamethoxazole?
I started Sulfamethoxazole on 9/23 in the late afternoon. I notice I am out of breath like never before. I don t think I ve ever been on the med before. It s for a UTI although two urinalysis labs didn t show an infection I had a lot of pressure and was and am urinating ever hour. Wondering if this med is causing my shortness of breath and I m feeling worn out. I m 82..female
