Introduction
In general cases, intravenous infusion for sinusitis may include medications such as Cefoperazone Sodium for injection, Prednisolone Acetate Injection, Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection, Bromhexine Hydrochloride Injection, and Metronidazole Sodium Chloride Injection. The use of these medications should be under a doctor's guidance. Additionally, regular nasal irrigation using normal saline or a nasal irrigator can help reduce nasal inflammation.

Generally, for intravenous infusion in the treatment of sinusitis, medications such as Cefoperazone Sodium for Injection, Prednisolone Acetate Injection, Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection, Bromhexine Hydrochloride Injection, and Metronidazole Sodium Chloride Injection may be used. Drug use should be conducted under a doctor's guidance. A detailed explanation is as follows:

1. Cefoperazone Sodium for Injection

Cefoperazone Sodium for Injection belongs to the class of antibiotic medications. It can kill or inhibit bacterial growth, thereby reducing inflammation and infection caused by sinusitis.

2. Prednisolone Acetate Injection

This medication belongs to the glucocorticoid class of drugs and has good anti-inflammatory effects. It can rapidly reduce inflammation and swelling caused by sinusitis, improving nasal ventilation.

3. Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Injection

Dexamethasone is a glucocorticoid that can reduce inflammatory responses in the sinus mucosa, decrease exudation, lower capillary permeability, and alleviate congestion and swelling of the sinus mucosa, thus improving sinus ventilation and drainage.

4. Bromhexine Hydrochloride Injection

Bromhexine Hydrochloride Injection is a mucolytic agent that increases serous gland secretion and decreases mucus gland secretion in the respiratory mucosa, thereby reducing sputum viscosity and improving ventilation function.

5. Metronidazole Sodium Chloride Injection

Anaerobic bacterial infection is a common cause of sinusitis. After intravenous infusion, Metronidazole Sodium Chloride Injection can rapidly distribute to the infected areas and eliminate the anaerobic bacteria causing sinusitis.

In daily life, physiological saline or a nasal irrigator can be used regularly to clean the nasal cavity, helping to remove nasal secretions, pathogens, and allergens, thus reducing nasal inflammation.
