| pubmed-article:10654979 | pubmed:abstractText | The recommended dosing frequency of oral penicillin for the treatment of acute streptococcal tonsillopharyngitis has long been 3 to 4 times daily. In 1994, treatment guidelines included twice-daily (BID) dosing for the first time, a recommendation that could significantly increase the ease of compliance. This meta-analysis was performed to determine whether overall cure rates differed between BID or once-daily (QD) versus more frequent dosing schedules in the treatment of streptococcal tonsillopharyngitis. | lld:pubmed |
