Treatment of acute otitis media (AOM). AAP, AAFP, CDC, and others recommend amoxicillin as drug of first choice for initial treatment of AOM, unless patient has severe illness (moderate to severe otalgia or fever ≥39°C) or the infection is suspected of being caused by β-lactamase-producing Haemophilus influenzae or Moraxella catarrhalis , in which case the fixed combination of amoxicillin and clavulanate is recommended for initial treatment. Those who fail to respond to amoxicillin should be retreated with amoxicillin and clavulanate.
