Is There Interaction Between Bactrim DS, Probiotics, Vitamin Supplement And Tegretol?

My husband has been prescribed Bactrim DS for infection on scalp. I ve read maybe taking a probiotic and vitamin B9 along with it might help with side affects. Any truth to that? Also, he is on Tegretol for seizures (they are controlled with the meds). Any conflict with the Bactrim?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No need to worry much for side effects as Bactrim DS is safe and having very less side effects.
So continue Bactrim DS, probiotic and multivitamin tablets.
And also don't worry about drug interactions with tegretal. All these drugs, Bactrim DS, probiotic and multivitamin tablets are safe with tegretal.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your husband. Thanks.
