Maybe: Sometimes antibiotics can upset the stomach... If that is what you mean when you say flu like symptoms then they could be related.. Other wise it may not be related.... You should give your dentist a call and tell him or her your symptoms and ask what to do...

Post op symptoms: Whenever the body is under duress--say from having 3 teeth removed, and even being on antibiotics, your body can feel weak and other symptoms may present. If you are feeling achy, weak, nauseated, etc. It could be from the medication and the fact that you did undergo minor surgery. Rest, eat healthy and you should recover in a few days.
