Ear Ringing-Rocephin IM & IV works, oral meds do not-?

I have ringing in both ears and sinus wont clear. Been to ER, ENT, and GP several times. On two occasions, once I was given Rocephin injection, and another time had Rocephin IV. That seemed to cure my ear ringing and sick feeling for 12-24 hours. But the amox, augmentin, keflex, and bactrim-ds oral that I was given four different times will not work. The bactrim-ds did seem to help but only after 5 days of taking and I felt worse the whole week of taking them. Is there a reason the Rocephin when IM or IV works but nothing else does? And why do all symptoms return 12-24 hours after?  Thank you

Thanks, I did.
Didn't mean to post in hearing loss, I'm new and don't see a way to edit or remove.

Hm, I have never heard of this. Maybe you should post in the ENT forum. I would love to know what they say!
