Hi everyone! My nephrologist has put me on co- trimoxazole as i am on Rituximab and will be every 6 months for 3 years. I have to take the tablets every other day to help stop infections. Any one ever had them? Any side effects? Im concerned as the side effects say you can hillucinate!

Hello Rach459

I have been on co trimoxazole alongside chemo for the past three months, no problems so far and certainly no hallucicinations.

Good luck

Regards

Wendy

Hi, I've been on this antibiotic for 6 months alongside chemotherapy too and I haven't had any side effects. Best wishes 🌺
