The response of sinusitis to antibiotics should usually be within 3-5 days to start to experience a difference, but can vary more than this amongst individual patients.

Pseudoephedrine is a very useful medication to help reduce secretions and dry up the sinuses. Many patients also find that taking an anti-histamine is useful (eg. Zyrtec or Claratyne) as it helps to reduce any contribution from an allergic component.
