title: [Conclusion: what is the choice of antibiotics in adult respiratory tract infections?].
abstract: TREATMENT OF SINUSITIS: For both acute rhinosinusitis in patients with no past history where S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae are the main causal agents, or recurrent sinusitis in a chronic background where anaerobic bacteria are increasingly implicated, pristinamycin is one of the rare compounds which can be expected to be effective and is a treatment of choice for an empirical strategy. LOWER RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTIONS: Besides high-risk subjects with non-microbiologically proven bronchial infection, where enterobacteriaceae could involve a pristinamycin is a useful alternative to the conventional strategy (i.e.: amoxicillin, macrolides and cotrimoxazole) in the treatment of LRT infection.
