Her mother states she had an upper respiratory infection a couple of weeks ago which has improved, but now she has a persistent cough. She has also been tugging at her right ear for the past three days. She has a PMH of ventricular septal defect. She lives at home with her parents. She attends daycare three days a week. She has no known drug allergies.Â

Discuss the short and long-term consequences of over-prescribing antibiotics. Â what antibiotic would be appropriate. If antibiotics are indicated, what would you prescribe?
