Azithromycin
sinusitis
"I'm sensitive to most medications and I've had severe reactions to many antibiotics as well. Surprisingly, I continue to be able to tolerate azithromycin (Z Pack). It's been effective for my sinusitis and I'll continue to request it, until it no longer works (side-effects are mild).



I do notice that physicians will almost always prescribe Augmentin as a first-line antibiotic for sinusitis, because it's effective against most strains of bacteria. It's a much more powerful drug, with the potential of more severe side-effects as well.



I'll reserve the big guns only when absolutely necessary. Good luck in your recovery."
