General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, you can continue your exercise regimen if you are feeling up to it. The medication should not have an impact on your ability to get through your exercise. If you start to feel unwell, it would be as a result of the illness that you are fighting not the medication and you may then need to stop for a while or discontinue completely till you are all better. You should continue to take it as prescribed till you have completed the course.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Michelle Gibson James
