Systemic antibiotic treatment of skin, skin structure, and soft tissue infections in the outpatient setting.

摘要

The unnecessary use of systemic antimicrobial agents can be reduced with more careful consideration when treating patients with skin, skin structure, and deep soft tissue infections. Improved prescribing habits will reduce potential adverse events for patients and help fight against the development of multidrug-resistant bacteria especially in the era of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
