Are there any otc antibiotics?

Question

I have a sinus infection and i am miserable and was wondering what i can take.

Please no Benadryl or Claritin or related meds. I'm already on allergy meds, but i still got an infection i just want something to get rid of it without having to see a doc.

Answer 1

First of all, you don't know if you have any infection without a Dr swabbing your nasal passages for a culture.  Allergy meds do nothing to combat an infection.

Please see a Dr if you can afford it, or try a walk-in clinic, or the ER of any hospital.  Don't try to wing this on your own, you have a chance of creating worse problems if you do.

Answer 2

Safe antibiotics you can trust, no.  You really should see a doctor to see what kind of infection you have and get the right antibiotics.  Feel better soon!

Answer 3

you can do a search for the antibiotic you are looking for and a gazillion on line pharmacies will pop up and sell them to you. i get mine in mexico.

Answer 4

No, sorry. But you could try the NETI POT. It's just a small tea pot looking thing that you put a nasel rinse in, add water, and pour in each nostril. Goes in one nostril and comes out the other. If I can use that pot anyone can-it's did wonders for my sinus. Try it- they are sold at WalMart, Wallgreens,any pharmacy and they only run about 10 bucks.
