" I would be interested if anyone
knows of any research that has looked at optimum length of antibiotics. I
would suggest "as long as necessary" - she should take a 6 day course, but
if everything is fine I think there is little to be gained by taking more
(and of course, the risk of thrush increases with more antibiotics). The
recent Australian guidelines say 10 days - so I am speaking in my not so
humble opinion here!

I have read ten days also. I've been too busy to check but have also
wondered if these 10 day treatments are all extrapolated from treating strep
pharyngitis.
