I have seen a Dr. about Sinusitus,
I was prescribed a Z Pack and Entex LA,
but my eyes feel like they are about to
explode, not to mention the pain when I
look in different directions. Taking
tylenol but doesn't touch the problem, any
opinions/experiences would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

My opinion is that zpak is horrible for
sinus infections. My doctor even told me
so. He won't even prescribe them unless
it's for something very minor. Sinusitis
is not minor and can lead to bad things if
not taken care of. I would suggest asking
your doc to prescribe you something else
like levaquin which a very broad spectrum
antibiotic (i.e. Kills a lot of different
bacterial agents). It can take longer to
get rid of a sinus infection than
something like bronchitis because of where
the bacteria are.

Will look in to Levaquin,
Do you have any reccommendations for
dealing with the pain?
