Sinusitis in pregnancy
Hi doctor,
I'm 20 weeks pregnant but suffering from a very bad sinusitis since 1 week. I had taken 7 days of montac lc as per my doctors suggestion. But still my nostrils are blocked and the mucus is still very thick and dark yellow in colour.
Is cefixime 200 mg twice a day safe for usage in 20 weeks pregnancy. Also, Amoxicillin does not provide a proper relief to me.
Kindly give suggestions on use of cefixime 200mg twice a day.
Thanks a lot 🙏
