Buy Proloprim Online

(Trimethoprim)

The generic name of Proloprim is trimethoprim.

Proloprim works as an antibiotic by stopping bacteria from making folic acid, a substance they need to grow and survive. Without enough folic acid, the bacteria cannot multiply, allowing the body’s immune system to clear the infection.

Follow all directions given to you by your doctor and read all documents provided, including the full Prescribing Information, FDA-Approved Product Labeling, Instructions for Use, and Medication Guide before using Proloprim. However, the following is a synopsis of the general guidelines for the use of Proloprim:

• Proloprim is taken by mouth, usually one or two times daily, depending on the infection being treated.
• It may be taken with or without food. Taking it with food may help reduce stomach upset.
• Tablets should be swallowed whole with a full glass of water.
• Take doses at evenly spaced times to keep a steady level of medicine in your body.
• Complete the full course of therapy, even if you start to feel better.
• If you miss a dose of Proloprim, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double doses.

Some mild or common side effects of trimethoprim include:

• Nausea.
• Vomiting.
• Stomach pain.
• Loss of appetite.
• Mild skin rash.
• Itching.

Some individuals may experience serious side effects while using Proloprim. These side effects may require immediate medical attention. If you experience any of the following, contact your healthcare provider or seek emergency medical help:

• Signs of an allergic reaction, such as hives, swelling of the face or throat, or trouble breathing.
• Severe skin reactions, including blistering or peeling skin.
• Sore throat, fever, or signs of infection that do not improve.
• Unusual bruising or bleeding, which may indicate blood disorders such as thrombocytopenia or leukopenia.
• Pale skin, fatigue, or shortness of breath, which may be signs of anemia.
• Severe diarrhea or stomach cramps, which may be due to an infection with a bacteria called Clostridioides difficile (C. diff).

These are not all of the possible adverse reactions of Proloprim. You should always seek medical advice from your healthcare provider for any questions or concerns about your medical condition or treatment. Read all patient information, medication guides, or drug information sheets that come with this medication. You can also report adverse effects to the Food and Drug Administration at www.fda.gov/medwatch or 1-800-FDA-1088.

• Kidney disease or reduced kidney function.
• Liver disease.
• Folate deficiency or a history of megaloblastic anemia.
• Blood disorders such as anemia, leukopenia, or thrombocytopenia.

• Have known hypersensitivity to trimethoprim.
• Have severe folate deficiency anemia unless closely monitored.

Your healthcare provider will decide if Proloprim is appropriate based on your medical history.

Proloprim begins working shortly after the first dose. Many people notice improvement in symptoms within a few days. However, it is important to complete the entire prescribed course to fully clear the infection and reduce the risk of recurrence.

When Proloprim is taken with other prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and supplements, it may change how they work or increase the frequency or severity of side effects. Make sure that you tell your healthcare professional about anything that you are taking to avoid any negative drug interactions, including:

• Methotrexate, which may increase the risk of bone marrow suppression.
• Phenytoin, as trimethoprim, may increase phenytoin levels.
• Dofetilide, which may increase the risk of serious heart rhythm problems.
• Supplements containing folic acid, which may affect treatment response.
• Sulfamethoxazole.

Proloprim is available as oral tablets containing trimethoprim.

Typical adult dosing for urinary tract infections is:

100 mg every 12 hours, or

200 mg once daily.

Dosage may vary based on the type and severity of infection, kidney function, and patient age. Pediatric dosing is based on their body weight and should be determined by a healthcare professional.

It should be stored at room temperature, away from the reach of children or pets.
