Best Answer

That depends on the severity and state of the individual's immune system. Don't overtake OTC medicines like decongestants and antihistamines which can dehydrate the body. Take a vitamin including a complex of Bs, C, and Zinc which will boost the immune system and help fight the bacteria. After a week or if you have a fever over 101, though, see a doctor.

Will ceftin treat a sinus infection?

Yes Ceftin will treat a sinus infection. It is generally used for tougher infections and has a very bitter taste to it. If you coat it in honey and drink with a flavored drink the taste will be muted. If you have a child you can give them chocolate milk with it and they won't taste it either.
