Abstract:
Respiratory tract infection is the most common disease in children, and it is also the most common disease of irrational use of antibiotics.The rational application of antibiotics is to reduce the rate of bacterial resistance and its adverse events.The emergence of drug-resistant strains is closely related to the wide application of antibiotics.In order to reduce the irrational use of antibiotics in children′s respiratory tract infection, pediatricians need to know the timing of application of antibiotics.The respiratory tract infection can be divided into upper respiratory tract infection and lower respiratory tract infection, including common cold, pharyngitis, sinusitis, otitis media, bronchitis and bronchitis, and pneumonia.This article reviews the application timing of antibiotics in the common respiratory tract infection of these children.
