Joanna had a small ventricle septal defect (VSD) repaired when she was 3 years old and has no residualcardiac problems. She is now 28 and is requesting prophylactic antibiotics for an upcoming dental visit.The appropriate antibiotic to prescribe according to current American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association guidelines is: 1. None, no antibiotic is required for dental procedures 2. Amoxicillin 2 grams 1 hour before the procedure 3. Ampicillin 2 grams IM or IV 30 minutes before the procedure 4. Azithromycin 1 gram 1 hour before the procedure 10. To prevent further development of antibacterial resistance it is recommended that fluoroquinolones bereserved for treatment of: 1. Urinary tract infections in young women 2. Upper respiratory infections in adults 3. Skin and soft tissue infections in adults 4. Community-acquired pneumonia in patients with comorbidities 11. Fluoroquinolones have a Black Box Warning regarding even months after treatment. 1. Renal dysfunction 2. Hepatic toxicity 3. Tendon rupture 4. Development of glaucoma 12.
