Sinusitis
"I&#039;m sensitive to most medications and I&#039;ve had severe reactions to many antibiotics as well. Surprisingly, I continue to be able to tolerate azithromycin (Z Pack). It&#039;s been effective for my sinusitis and I&#039;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&#039;s effective against most strains of bacteria. It&#039;s a much more powerful drug, with the potential of more severe side-effects as well.



I&#039;ll reserve the big guns only when absolutely necessary. Good luck in your recovery."
