Won't the pill lose it's effectiveness? Different clinicians give different advice on the need to use a backup method of birth control when on antibiotics. You should ask the opinion of your doctor and follow her advice. >Also she said >take bactrim for three days a long time ago and most recent said just >take one cipo right before or after. Three days of Bactrim is often used to treat a urinary tract infection. One cipro with intercourse is used to prevent urinary tract infections in people who get them when they have sex. I'm assuming that is what your doctor has done, but you can ask her to clear up any confusion. -- Patti Tessler, BSN, MSN, RN, CS Family Nurse Practitioner Next message: Patti Tessler, Family Nurse Practitioner: "Re: Possible Miscarage" Previous message: Maureen: "Can BV cause post-coital bleeding?"
