I have been on Bactrim DS twice a day for 6 weeks now. Honestly, it hasn't really helped. I am using Tazorac and BP in the morning though and am starting juicing and other dietary modifications. My derm gave me a 3 month supply but she did not really talk about tapering off. She basically said to use it twice a day for 3 months and just stop. I was thinking of using it twice a day for the full 2 months and using it once a day on month 3. Does anyone have any tips on coming off? While it hasn't really helped, I know that when some people come off antibiotics they break out a lot more so I am really trying to avoid that.

Anyone? I have decided that I want to start tapering off. Is this necessary after being only on it for 7 weeks? Would a period of taking it once a day for a week and than every other day for a week be a long enough taper? Thanks in advance.
