A member asked:

Can cipro (ciprofloxacin) make you tired? i'm taking it for a sinus infection. i've had to take it at nights because it makes me so tired.

Unlikely: You could be feeling tired if you have allergies that are causing you to have sinus problems. Cipro (ciprofloxacin) generally does not make one tired.

Rare: More likely the reason that you are taking the Cipro (ciprofloxacin) is making you tired.
