Hi Whit , can you ring your pharmacist to check?

If you are getting more short of breath , contact your health professional again .

Take care .

got through to my doc's, she said it can't be the antibiotic, so that's it.

I get SOB on the second week of 750mg Ciprofloxacin, it clears within in 2 days of finishing the course. I would still check with your consultant or pharmacist. xx
