Acute sinusitis means inflammation of the sinuses. It usually follows a cold or another upper respiratory infection.
400mg
Moxifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic used for community-acquired pneumonia, acute sinusitis and skin infections. This tablet comes in one strength and several pack sizes. You see the price per tablet for each option.
The sinuses fill with fluid during an episode. A viral infection often sets the process off. Bacteria account for a smaller share of cases and may complicate an illness that is not resolving.
Pressure behind the cheeks, in the forehead or around the eyes comes from fluid collecting in the sinuses.
Saline nasal rinses, steam inhalation and enough fluid can help with comfort. These measures do not depend on whether the cause is viral or bacterial. Antibiotics become relevant when a bacterial cause is suspected. Moxifloxacin is one option for adults when first-line treatment has not worked or the infection is more severe; it is supplied as a 400mg tablet (Moxifloxacin product page). Pharmacy partners in India ship to Malaysia in discreet packaging.
Seek prompt medical care for a high fever, intense pain on one side of the face, swelling around the eye, a stiff neck, or when an initial improvement is followed by a sudden worsening.
