A member asked:
Can iv antibiotics cause severe headaches?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Potentially yes: Virtually any drug could trigger a headache depending on a patient's genetic susceptibility, and not unique to have a migraine reaction to certain antibiotics. Might wonder about allergic types of reactions perhaps under these circumstances. Confer with your doctor regarding future medication choices.
