A member asked:
I have an actual sinus infection. will cefixime (suprax) be effective, or is it at least a reasonable first choice? would cefuroxime be better?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sinusitis therapy : Is it acute or chronic? Choice of antibiotics depends on several factors, and is a judgment call by the treating physician who evaluates and follows up the case, see an ENT specialist for a second opinion if treatment results aren't satisfactory, good luck
