A member asked:
I have a sinus infection. should i get a shot of rocephin (ceftriaxone)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Sinusitis is generally not treated with antibiotics unless it is very severe or long-lasting. When it is treated, it's not usually with a shot of rocephin (ceftriaxone).
