Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the best duration(3 versus 6 weeks) of antibiotics
as part of maximal medical therapy for treating chronic sinusitis and thus preventing
patients from having to have sinus surgery. The hypothesis is that in the context of maximal
medical therapy 3 weeks of antibiotics is not worse than 6 weeks of antibiotics at
successfully treating chronic sinusitis.
