Is Smoking Methamphetamine Harmful While Taking Bactrim?
Does smoking meth take away the good effects of taking bactrum? My boyfriendjust recently got a boil on his elbow and he had a script for bactrum. He has been taking it for a whole day now. Will smoking meth while taking the antibiotics decrease the effects of the antibiotics? Different people I have asked all seem to say different things. Help me please! Thank you.

Hello,
There are no interactions between smoking meth and taking Bactrim or other antibiotics. It would be better if he stops smoking at all but can't be related to antibiotics ineffectiveness while smoking it.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
