Probably, but it may depend on why you are taking the Ciprofloxacin, in what stage of the infection you currently are (if you still have a high fever, etc.), and what, if any, underlying health or medical conditions you have.

This antibiotic is used to treat bacterial infections. There are no known drug interaction issues between antibiotics and flu vaccinations. The question might be whether your body and immune system, that is actively fighting the bacterial infection can tolerate adding another organism to the mix that will also need your immune system to respond to create antibodies for the flu immunity as well as fight the bacteria. Ask the Doctor Who prescribed the antibiotic if it will be okay before going for the vaccination, or talk to the clinician who will administer the vaccine beforehand so they can evaluate if you should delay the vaccination until the bacterial infection is totally gone.

Can you get the flu shot while taking Flagyl?

There is no drug interaction problem between the flu vaccine and Flagyl. But whether you get the vaccination while still taking the antibiotic may depend on why you are taking antibiotics. If you have a current infection, it is usually better to wait until that is cleared up before taking vaccines. But, each situation can be different, and this is a question that the doctor who prescribed the antibiotics should be asked to know what is right in your case.Unless there is a specific reason your doctor wants you to wait, usually the only reason not to get a flu shot while taking antibiotics would be if you have an active infection with a high fever over 101 F. Get your flu shot unless you have a high fever, or the doctor recommends delaying the immunization due to your specific condition.
