Best Answer

Yes, it is considered a moderately effective second-line antibiotic for the treatment of sinus infection. Doxycline is part of the Tetracycline group. Do not take if allergic to Tetracycline. Otherwise, this is a modestly effective antibiotic, and useful for patients allergic to Penicillin. Please follow-up with your doctor if after taking for several days (4-5), symptoms do not subside.
