Antibiotics making me tired

Sent to Health Experts February 07 12:47 PM

I have had this cough for a little over six weeks, however, it was just in the morning and evening. I do medical billing, so I asked my client about it, and he prescribed Z-pack. Even tho' I had the cough for so long, it didn't really affect my daily activities; however, once I started the Z-pack, I am exhausted. Do antiobiotics cause fatigue?
