What is the cause of yellow phlegm in the morning? What is the cure?… by TR
I have been producing yellow (sometimes green) phlegm in the morning for the past two months. The weird thing is that I am not coughing. The phlegm just comes out when I spit or when I try to clear my throat. I saw my doctor 5 times already during this period and all of them think it's allergies. But after taking Clarenex, Nasonex, Amoxicillin, and Erythromicin it's still there. Please help. Thank you.

does anyone know what the best medicine is for sinus infection?… by kyg
I have tried alot of medicines but it keeps coming back.
Best Answer:
Antibiotics for sinusitis
Examples
amoxicillin (Amoxil, Larotid, Trimox)
amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin, Augmentin XR)
ampicillin (Marcillin, Principen)
azithromycin (Zithromax)
cefaclor (Ceclor)
cefdinir (Omnicef)
cefpodoxime proxetil (Banan, Vantin)
cefprozil (Cefzil)
cefuroxime axetil (Ceftin)
clarithromycin (Biaxin, Biaxin XL)
gatifloxacin (Tequin)
levofloxacin (Levaquin)
loracarbef (Lorabid)
moxifloxacin hydrochloride (Avelox)
telithromycin (Ketek)
trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim, Septra)
All the above are recommended for sinus infections. There is not really ONE best one. It would all depend on if you are allergic to any medications or not. Also if this is chronic and they keep coming back maybe talking with your doctor about the pros and cons of surgery to correct this. Be careful with taking antibiotics on a regular basis as this can cause resistance to many things.
