A 78-yeаr-оld pаtient is аdmitted tо the hоspital with signs of cellulitis. Blood and wound cultures are obtained. The provider prescribes a broad-spectrum antibiotic immediately. Three days later, the culture results identify Escherichia coli as the causative organism, and the provider changes the prescription to a narrow-spectrum antibiotic. The patient asks, “Why are we changing the medicine after I’ve been on it three days?” Which explanation best describes the reason for this change in therapy?
