It is suggested that the term "acute rhinosinusitis" should be referred to all upper respiratory tract infections. Based on the results from the analysis of published data, it is shown that the main component of etiotropic treatment of acute rhinosinusitis in children is antibiotic therapy, in most cases - with the use of local antibacterial combination drugs. If systemic antibiotics need to be prescribed, it is advisable to combine them with topical combination drugs.
