  • When do I really need antibiotics for a sinus infection?

    When do sinus infections need antibiotic treatment? Antibiotics may be needed when a secondary bacterial infection accompanies the primary viral infection. A clear sign of this will be high fever (>100 degrees) and facial pain that persists for more than five days.

  • When do you really need antibiotics for that sinus infection?

    X-rays cannot tell if the infection is due to a virus or bacteria, so are not particularly helpful. Antibiotics should be reserved for patients whose symptoms persist for over 10 days, are severe, or deteriorate after initial improvement. Severe symptoms include fever over 102, discolored nasal drainage, facial pain for over 3 days.

  • What is the best antibiotic to treat a sinus infection?

    Treatment of Chronic Sinusitis The antibiotics of choice include agents that cover organisms causing acute sinusitis but also cover Staphylococcus species and anaerobes. These include amoxicillin-clavulanate, cefpodoxime proxetil, cefuroxime, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, and levofloxacin.

  • Do sinus infections respond well to antibiotics?

    This means that the majority of the time, antibiotics are unnecessarily prescribed. Of all sinus infections, 85% clear up on their own, while only 15% do not. This 15% is the population that needs antibiotics. Consuming antibiotics, even when you need them, increases side effects and bacterial resistance rates.
