Answer
Thanks for posting a question.
Generally Septrin is very easy to take with no side effects – for most people it is like talking a chelk pill.
A small percentage of people – certianly less than 1 in 100 (1%) but maybe much less – get a sensitivity reaction.
This is can be a severe reaction so it is important to tell your docotr as soon as you have symptoms.
Alternative antibiotics are usually available.
