Hi Dance QueenSorry to hear your feeling unwell and depressed, when you have exacerbations it can really knock you for six, you can feel ill and breathless for sometime. I doubt if the carbocistein would make you feel worn out or depressed, but the antibiotics may make you feel a little worse as they can make you feel sick or have upset tummy, not sure about making you depressed. Maybe it's the situation making you feel down. Please talk to your GP. I hope you start to feel better soon. 😊
