Do go to an urgent care. Sinus infections can get more serious. I assume you have yellowish drainage? Sinus infections are usually gram positive bacteria. The amoxicillin is for that. Tetracycline is not meant for gram positive. A Rx that is 8 months old may ot be able to be filled. If you are seeing a doctor soon you do not want to start on an antibiotic unless you call and the doctor calls one in.
Then go to an urgent care. No, Tetracycline is not meant for sinus infections. Antibiotics better for that include Zythromycin, Cephalosporin, Bactrim DS, Keflex. Not Tetracycline.
NO!
