Med. Prof.- Don’t prescribe ABx unless there is a clear cut bacterial infection acc. to the guidelines. Patients don’t ask for antibiotics unless you have a clear cut bacterial infection. ABx aren’t for sore throat unless you have a PROVEN Strep. infection. (Or other rare illnesses.) A lot of clinicians are intimidated to give an antibiotic because they are afraid they will lose business to someone else.
