Summary
This study was performed in children with upper respiratory tract infections (acute ear
infection, infection of the tonsils or throat, or bacterial inflammation of the bronchi) who
needed treatment with an antibiotic (clarithromycin). The study investigated a new technology
which delivers the antibiotic in a straw (dose sipping technology, DST) in comparison to a
marketed syrup.
