AHRQ Safety Program for Improving Antibiotic Use

Three sets of guidelines have been developed for the treatment of CAP. The guidelines were developed by the American Thoracic Society (ATS), The IDSA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Miskovich-Riddle & Keresztes, 2006). The CDC recommends a macrolide or Doxycycline or beta-lactam for outpatient CAP. ................
