I've been dizzy for 3 days now what could it be i've been on amoxil (amoxicillin) and dexamethasone for 6 days now for sinus and throat infection?

Anything: Your dizziness can have any cause at this time. Change in blood pressure especially when you change positions, known as orthostatic hypotension. Side effects of medication is possible too, especially dexametasone. I'd stop (it sounds an overkill to treat sinus/throat infection for that long with it). Also, make sure you drink plenty of fluids and take over-the-counter probiotic with your ab.
