Abstract
Clinical manifestations and radiographic findings are unreliable guides to the selection of antimicrobial therapy for lower respiratory infections. Laboratory evaluation is necessary to identify the etiologic agent. Multiple oral antibiotics are available for outpatient treatment of bronchitis or pneumonia suspected to be of bacterial origin.
