Double-blind comparative-effectiveness study of the treatment of acute bacterial sinusitis with standard dose of amoxicillin/clavulanate 875mg/125mg bid for 7 days, as recommended by the Infectious Disease Society of America, with or without the addition of immediate-release amoxicillin 875 mg bid x 7 days. The study aims are 1) to confirm, or not, our recent findings of more rapid improvement in overall symptoms with the additional amoxicillin, but also of more frequent diarrhea and vaginal yeast infections and 2) to assess, from the participants' point of view, the balance between improvement and adverse effects.
