Hi,
I am sorry for the health situation your husband is going through.
Amoxicillin is a broad spectrum antibiotic used to treat various infections including sinus infection and boils on his butt. Keeping a good local hygiene is also highly recommended.
Apart amoxicillin, he might need:
- local antiseptics (betadine)
- mucolytic to help dissolve and clear up the mucus
- oral antiseptic spray
- anti-inflammatory medications
- probiotics to normalize intestinal flora as it might be altered due to amoxicillin use
Wish fast recovery!
