A man had a viral upper respiratory tract infection and demanded that the family nurse practitioner (FNP) write him a prescription for an antibiotic. The FNP gave the man both
 
  verbal and written information about over-the-counter drugs to control symptoms. However, the patient insisted upon an antibiotic. What might the FNP reply?
 
  A. Antibiotics won't be helpful in treating this, but they may allow bacteria that will be immune to antibiotics to develop, putting you at high risk for getting sicker.
  B. I'll write you a prescription for a special new research drug that works wonders with viral respiratory infections. Then the FNP writes a prescription for a placebo.
  C. I'm the expert. I'll decide when you need an antibiotic. And you do NOT need one.
  D. Of course; I always try to meet the needs of my clients. Which antibiotic do you find works best for you?
