Head ache and temp on Cipro

Maggie is almost done with her 2 week course of oral Cipro for her first culture pseudo. She has 2 days left. She woke last night with a headache, course I was half asleep and I gave her some tylenol; this morning she still has a headache I checked her temp cause she had felt warm to me when I gave her the tylenol but being half asleep I didn't check her temp then. Her temp this am was 99. But she feels warm to me.

Could this be from the CIpro? Or maybe she is coming down with something? She is also on TOBI(first time as well). Should I watch her or give her CF doc a call?

I guess I read the side effects of Cipro and fever can be one. WWYD?

I would always err on the side of caution just to be safe -- call the CF doc and let them know what is going on, your concerns, etc.

As far as Cipro causing fevers, I guess it could, esp if it is notated as one of the side effects. Personally it has never caused a fever for me, and has actually made my fever (due to an infection I had) go away.

Hope she is feeling better soon!

I think she might be coming down with something else; like a virus. Sigh. I'm pushing fluids, rest, tylenol. SHe's already on anti's. I'll see how tonight goes and if she's still running a temp, I'll call tomorrow. Lungs sound good but she has a dry cough.
