If: Documented sinus infection, the right antibiotic should help. Sometimes bacteria become resistant to a abx, talk to your ENT and check sensitivity of bacteria. Good luck.

Take it with food : If its really making you nauseous take it with a small portion of food like a cracker and drink fluids. If still very bad speak to your doctor about trying another antibiotic.
