Now there is no generally accepted practice of antibacterial therapy of acute sinusitis in outpatient clinics of Russia. Choice of antibacterial drugs is often made without consideration of the most probable causative agents of the infection. Out-of-date antibiotics used in many cases do not satisfy modern requirements. Clinically essential features of pharmacokinetics are in some cases ignored. Parenteral administration is often unjustified, combined antibiotic treatment is not always validated.
