Our school taught us, fight with Penicillin and prophylaxis with Amoxicillin. Could you tell me what do you prefer? Please consider effectiveness, cost and patient compliance (dose,side effects etc) Thank you.

That sounds logical. Penicillin for active non-isolated infections because it's narrow spectrum. Amoxicillin for pre-med because it's absorbed better and TID.

For some reason, I have always written prescriptions for Amoxicillin. Since residency and even after practicing for over 15 years....for infections and prophylaxis. For some reason, my patients have done well with this antibiotic.
Thank you all for your responses. Epocrates app is really good though not as good as Lexicomp online but well it's a paid service which as a student we got for free.
