Antibiotic prophylaxis is often recommended for close contacts of index cases of invasive Streptococcus pyogenes infections. Using MarketScan data (2010-2019), we found no difference in infection rates between those who received and those who did not receive antibiotics but a 3-fold increased risk of adverse events in those who did receive antibiotics.
对于侵袭性化脓性链球菌感染的首例病例的密切接触者,通常建议进行抗生素预防。利用市场扫描数据(2010 - 2019年),我们发现接受抗生素治疗和未接受抗生素治疗的人群之间感染率没有差异,但接受抗生素治疗的人群发生不良事件的风险增加了3倍。
