I was diagnosed with bronchitis/ upper respiratory infection last monday (over a week ago) and was put on the Z-Pack. I finished all the anti-biotics and my cough is still very irritating and I feel like it is starting to worsen again. Should I make a follow up appointment and do you think the antibiotics worked?
