Treatment for Sinusitis
Treatment for Sinusitis
Specific treatment for sinusitis will be determined by your physician based on:
- Your age, health, and medical history
- Extent of the disease
- Your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
- Expectations for the course of the disease
- Your opinion or preference
Treatment of sinusitis may include the following:
- Antibiotics, as determined by your physician. Antibiotics are usually given for 10 to 14 days, and sometimes even longer.
- Acetaminophen for pain or discomfort
- Nasal drops
Decongestants and antihistamines do not seem to help the symptoms of sinusitis.
