Suggest Alternative Medication To Levofloxacin For Sinus Infection While Having A Deviated Septum

I have had so I have had sinus infections on and off most of my life triggered my weather change and humidity. And all of the specialists I have been to tell me I have a deviated septum but not a candidate for surgery. I am now 70 years old and after all these years of dealing with this problem, the only drug that cures my infections is Levofloxacin. Can you tell me if there are other antibiotics similar to Levofloxacin that I can take or what is in that drug that works while other antibiotics no longer work.

Hello,

There are different types of antibiotics that you can take: ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin, Cefdinir, etc., which can help improve your situation, in case Levofloxacin does not help.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
