"What is the best antibiotic for a sinus infection?
Most cases of sinusitis clear up within 10 days. Antibiotics are not needed for acute viral sinusitis. If a secondary bacterial infection should develop, one treatment of choice is amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin). In patients who have severe allergy to penicillin-type drugs, doxycycline is a reasonable alternative."
