Well, actually, being a human Registered Nurse, I'll stick by my original statement. I have administered antibiotics of many kinds, for many situations, for many, many years. But I do not know of one whose dosage is regularly administered for 14 days. Ten, yes. Seven yes. Five yes, and on some occasions three daily injectables. There may be occasions where one would routinely be prescribed for 14 days, but I don't know of any off hand. IV antibiotics run the gamut, but I am assuming we are still talking PO meds here. The ideal would be to prescribe an antibiotic that doesn't require a 14 days administration, and there are such antibiotics now available. Myra Savant
