When to "CAP" off treatment for pneumonia
Abstract
Is 5 days of antibiotic therapy really sufficient for adults hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia? PRACTICE CHANGER: Prescribe 5 days of antibiotic treatment for inpatients with community-acquired pneumonia because it produces the same clinical success rates as longer treatment regimens, but is associated with fewer negative patient outcomes.
