Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Hope you have completed the course of ciprofloxacin. You may continue oral steroids for a few more days under your doctor's supervision. You will feel better. Continue the inhaler as well. Take a nasal spray like fluticasone for nasal symptoms. As I mentioned earlier you should ask your doctor to change lisinopril to something else. as it cause cough. Take rest. You should be fine soon.

Take care.
