What meds for the treatment of sinusitis are safe during pregnancy?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
See below: Most cases of sinusitis do not require antibiotics and they are only recommended for the most severe and persistant cases lasting over 7-10 days. Safe antibiotics to take for sinusitis during pregnancy include zithromax, Augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) and cefuroxime.

Penicillins: Also cephalosporins (like keflex) and erythromycins. You want to avoid tetracyclines and quinolones (like cipro).
