Hello,

The symptoms can be related to side effects of antibiotics. The antibiotics cause a low blood sugar level. This may cause weakness and dizziness. I suggest to eat a small meals frequently. I also suggest to drink liquids and rest. I also recommend to take a multivitamin to boost the immune system.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
