augmentin, 3rd or 4th gen cephalosporin; + topical analgesic for ear (Auralgan) and oral analgesic
|
|
don't alternate APAP and IBU because:
|
pt will likely make a med error AND, if sick enough to need something q 2-4h for pain they'll likely be dehydrated: APAP and IBU will be very hard on the kidneys (they MUST be well-hydrated!)
