Resum

Empiric treatment of skin infections depends on the epidemiological characteristics, type of injury, the suspected etiologic agent and progression. Topical treatments are enough for surperficial infections. If there is deep infection, malaise or complications of other organs, systemic treatment should be initiated. In some cases, recurrent infections can be prevented with prophylactic doses of drugs.
