Strep throat and a penicillinology label.
One person gets penicillin.
That's indicated for penicillin.
Strep throat goes away.
No long-term sequelae.
They're fine.
It was cheap.
And then the other person gets a Z-Pak, a zithromycin.
And it doesn't fully go away.
Then they call back and they get another antibiotic.
Maybe this time...
They get a bigger antibiotic, and that causes some problem.
They might get a tonsillar abscess.
They get a quinolone, ciprofloxacin unnecessarily, or some other medication.
Yeah.
There's no rule like the more syllables the antibiotic has, it's worse.
I wish it were that simple.
We can evaluate for penicillin allergy with simple tests.
And these simple tests need to be delivered to that 10% of America and reimbursed appropriately and taught to a non-specialist workforce.
Could be a welcome to college visit, a welcome to Medicare visit.
