A member asked:
I started taking a general, prescribed antibiotic yesterday for a sore throat, cough, and cold. is it common to feel overall weakened today?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not uncommon: Infections can certainly cause generalized fatigue and malaise, and just one day of the antibiotics will not get you feeling better that soon. Rest and drink plenty of fluids. If you get worse and not slowly better, than follow-up with the Dr. Best wishes.
