Bactrim side effect?

I took 4 pills of Bactrim for UTI. The Er dr told me my UTI was gone and I could discontinue the meds. I haven’t had a dose in 36 hours and my eyes are dry and sort of burning. The inside of my mouth feel slight burning/tingling and my eyes feel slightly sore.

Unlikely sec to drug allergy. Usually drug allergy happens while on the meds and subsides once off the meds. Please check with your family physician, as I am a kidney specialist.
Sounds like you may be allergic to bactrim.
