I am wondering what kind of medications anyone is taking for pseudomonas? Inhaled or oral? Has any one heard of taking bactrim ds for pseudomonas?

I had pseudomonas for along time and they put me on amikacin iv. It went away but now its back and they put me on bactrim iv. If you have any questions I will be glad to try and answer them. My E-mail is in my profile.

Never heard of using Bactrim DS for Pseudomonas. It can be used to treat MRSA though if your MRSA infection is sensitive to it.

I am currently on Colistin neb to alternate monthly with Tobi neb & Bactrim DS daily as well as Zithromax for inflammation. I also have used Cipro (oral) as the step before IV. It usually works. I dont take it unless absolutely necessary.

I used to be treated w/ Bactrim when I was little for pseudomonus (spelling?) But now I usuallyonly take it to treat MRSA. I take Cipro for one month and Tobi the next, alternating the 2 and also Zithromax e/o day.
