What Causes Fatigue After Taking Flucloxacillin?

Hello, I have been prescribed Flucloxacillin 500mg to treat an infected insect bite, with a dosage of 4 times per day for 7 days. I started taking the medication on 27/08/16 and have since been feeling fatigued and somewhat spaced out. Please can you confirm if this is normal?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

It may not be the medication causing your symptoms but the infection itself.

This antibiotic is not normally associated with these symptoms but persons can have different responses to medication.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Michelle Gibson James, General & Family Physician
