    Document: Acute upper respiratory infections (URIs), inclusive of acute pharyngitis, sinusitis, and tracheobronchitis, are the most common reason for antibiotic therapy in primary care and urgent care settings and account for nearly 90% of the 41 million antibiotic prescriptions per year for acute respiratory infections (ARI) in the United States [1] . Unfortunately, viral respiratory infections like influenza often lead to inappropriate prescribing of antibiotics, contributing to the expanding problem of microbial resistance. In addition, routine antibiotic overuse can lead to unnecessary consultations, emergency room (ER) visits, allergic reactions including anaphylaxis, Stevens Johnson syndrome, and Clostridium difficile infection [1] .
