Doxycycline is a wide spectrum antibiotic that treats many skin, ear, and respiratory infections (including sinusitis). If this is something your doctor prescribed, I would definitely encourage you to give it a chance and see if you notice any progress over the duration that its been prescribed for. Unfortunately there's no real way to know for sure how well it will work for your ear until you actually try it.

Are you certain that the loss in hearing was due to a sinus infection and not something else, like nerve damage? If you're not sure, it may be wise to clear that up with a proper diagnosis. I know Helichrysum (essential oil) has also been known to regenerate nerves in the ears. Several people who were born deaf, due to nerves not connecting, have been totally cured with this oil over the course of several weeks. Just thought I'd throw that out there in case you felt like you needed another option/candidate as an adjunct therapy to Doxycycline.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Doxycycline Details

I hope this info helps
