The Diagnosis
Ben Fallerez is a 12 year old boy going to school in France. He complained of a sore throat. The initial diagnosis was Streptococcal pharyngitis. The boy was treated with penicillin, but the symptoms did not resolve. A recurrent infection led the physician to perform a culture and sensitivity. The organism was identified as Streptococcus pyogenes and was reported as being resistant to penicillin.

Resistance Displayed by Organism
Treatment with penicillin killed all sensitive S. pyogenes, letting S. pyogenes resistant to penicillin grow
Non-compliance Over-prescribing of antibiotics

Treatment of penicillin resistant S. pyogenes
500 mg erythromycin qid for 10 days If resistant to that: 450 mg clindamycin qid for 10 days

Prognosis
S. pyogenes is benign, self-limiting disease Symptoms did not subside, was re-evaluated
and given different antibiotics because initial pathogen developed resistance to first antibiotic
If he complies, his prognosis is good

Precautions
Take entire prescription Monitor for signs of an active infection Re-evaluate with a physical examination and
a throat culture and sensitivity to verify pathogen is treated and guarantee no further complications
