Antibiotics of No Value in Upper Respiratory Infection

Children with upper respiratory infections who had streptococci excluded by culture were treated with either of the above agents or a placebo. There was no difference among the regimes in overall outcome.

Comments: This study would seem superfluous but for the continued promiscuous use of the antibiotics for viral disease in hopes of "preventing complications." It doesn't work. I wish that it did. (R.H.R.)
