Viral syndrome: 85% of the time someone with your symptoms has a viral upper respiratory illness and antibiotics will not help. The treatment is rest, lots of fluids, medications to aid the symptoms, and time for your body to combat the virus and get healing to take place.

Reaction or flu?: It could be that you had a viral infection all along, and the z pack did not affect it and now you are still having the progression of the original illness, or it may be that you are reacting to the medication. Did you take any other medications with the z pack? Call you doctor and let them examine you.
