Tetracycline can be prescribed to treat certain bacterial sinus infections, particularly if the bacteria causing the infection are susceptible to the antibiotic. However, it's important to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, as not all sinus infections are bacterial—many are viral and do not require antibiotics. Additionally, the choice of antibiotic may depend on individual health factors and local resistance patterns. Always follow your doctor's advice regarding medication.
