A member asked:
Dentist prescribed me a zpak for sinusitis, affecting my teeth. (hurts so bad). how long until the pain is relieved from taking the zpak?

Antibiotics: An MD should be prescribing appropriate antibiotics for sinusitis. From my personal experience I have found Z-pack ineffective for those types of infections. Levaquin (levofloxacin) worked much better for me.
