Hi i do care for your concern.
The tablet you are taking is usually twice a day dosage.
You have not mentioned the dosage that you are taking.
If the sulfa strength is 800mg then one tablet at morning and night.
The nigh dosage can be taken after eight for now, from next have morning and night schedule. thirst is not related to drug, however its advisable to have plenty of water.
Hope i have answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask.
Thank you.
