What Causes Fatigue, Joints Pain And Dizziness While Taking Ciprofloxacin?

I am near completing a ciprofloxacin prescription, and this morning began experiencing some of the side effects of fatigue, muscle and joint pain, head ache, light headedness. I complete the dosage today, how long should I expect the side effects to linger?
