Abstract

The purpose of the expert council was to determine the place of cefpodoxime in the ABT algorithms for upper and lower respiratory tract infections and to form a consensus position on its use in clinical practice. Based on the available data, the possibility of including cefpodoxime in national guidelines for the treatment of rhinosinusitis, acute tonsillopharyngitis, community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), as well as infectious exacerbations of chronic bronchitis (CB) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is being considered.
