الإجابة: B. Oral Amoxicillin-clavulanate
Infected animal bites involve mouth flora, including anaerobes and Pasteurella. The antimicrobials lecture names amoxicillin-clavulanate (a β-lactam + β-lactamase inhibitor) as the drug of choice for animal bites. Oral treatment fits a mild, localised infection.
- IV ceftriaxone (C) has poor anaerobic cover.
- Clindamycin alone (D) misses Pasteurella.
