Recommendations for the use of Macromax may vary depending on the indication. In the case of sinusitis, doctors often prescribe azithromycin (the active ingredient in Macromax) for 3 days, which is the standard regimen for uncomplicated bacterial infections. If your doctor has decided to extend treatment to 9 days, it may be due to the severity of the infection or other clinical factors. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions and not stop therapy prematurely.
Discontinuation of treatment increases the risk of recurrence of infection and the development of bacterial resistance.
If in doubt, I encourage you to consult your doctor again. It is the doctor who decides on the possible treatment of the patient, m.in. on the basis of the patient's medical history and previous response to treatment. Only a doctor can decide whether to change pharmacotherapy.
