A member asked:

Does cipro (ciprofloxacin) treat deep sinus infections?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cipro (ciprofloxacin) often works: Cipro (ciprofloxacin) covers many of the bacteria that cause sinusitis, even some of the more resistant types. It does not treat all bacterial sinusitis, viral colds, or nasal polyps.
