A member asked:
Will keflex help sinusitis? i'm currently on it for kidney infection but i've been getting symptoms of sinus the last couple of days?

Most of the time you do not need antibiotic for sinusitis. If you truly have bacterial sinusitis, keflex may be effective with some bacteria, not all. Good luck.
