A member asked:

What is the usual dose of azithromycin for small mucus retention maxillary polyp?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Polyps: The inappropriate use of antibiotics for such things as azithromycin for polyps or sinus infections has contributed to what we now see is that azithromycin is losing its effectiveness. It is so unfortunate that there are countries where people can buy antibiotics and use them without limits. Please see a doctor.
