Always inform your doctor about all medications you take, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, before starting Trimox. This helps prevent potential drug interactions.
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. These usually are mild and resolve without treatment. However, persistent or severe digestive upset warrants immediate medical attention.
Less common, but still possible, are allergic reactions. These can manifest as skin rashes, itching, or swelling. In rare cases, a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) can occur, requiring immediate emergency medical care. Symptoms include difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, and dizziness. Seek immediate medical help if you experience any of these symptoms.
Trimox can impact your liver. Your doctor may order blood tests to monitor liver function, particularly if you’re taking the medication for an extended period. Report any signs of liver problems, such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), dark urine, or abdominal pain.
For individuals with kidney problems, Trimox dosage adjustment might be necessary. Discuss your kidney health with your physician before beginning treatment.
Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should consult their doctor before using Trimox. The medication may pass into breast milk and impact the nursing infant.
Avoid alcohol consumption while taking Trimox. This minimizes the risk of increased side effects and potential liver damage.
