I have been taking this drug for a week and two days. I am able to fall asleep easily but I have been waking up every night since I started this medication with terrible anxiety and my heart beating fast. I have also had some stomach cramping and frequent urination. I developed an upset stomach three days ago and haven't had a bowel movement since. I have also had really bad headaches.

Prescribed SMZ/TMP for Bronchitis and within two doses have noticed night sweats, headache, upset stomach, insomnia (this is real abnormal I can sleep anywhere/anytime) and the worst symptom is the spots on my hands that itch like crazy. I called the doctor and she informed me to stop immediately and asked if my lips were swollen or I had a hard time breathing. She told me to go to the emergency room immediately if I got swelling of the lips and labored breathing. Why? Well, after my own research I found SJS - Stevens Johnson Syndrome is a bad if not deadly side effect. With life lasting trauma to the body.
I have been sick with Bronchitis for two weeks and after taking this medication DID NOT GET ANY BETTER. But, soon as I got off the pills, my breathing is better and I feel better already. Just need to know when the itchy hands will go away?
