Are Weakness And Dizziness Normal Symptoms Of Antibiotics?
Hi I went it the doctor on Saturday and told me I had brocohitis i will be taking the last antibiotic pill tomorrow and am still have a cough that doesn t lt me sleep and today I felt week and dizzy is this normal symptoms or should I worry and go to see the doctor again
The cough may go on for a while after infection. This is because the airways may need some time to recover completely after the infection is cleared. As long as you do not have any fever, shortness of breath or chest pain, you should be fine. Dizziness and weakness may be due to the infection you went through or may be side effects of the antibiotic. They should be better within the next week.
If you notice no improvement within a week or you notice any worsening or any new symptoms you will need to see your doctor.
I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.
Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj General and Family Physician
