Endocarditis prophylaxis

Antibiotic prophylaxis for dental
procedures is now recommended only in
patients with a prosthetic heart valve;
previous IE; cyanotic congenital heart
disease that is unrepaired, within 6
months of a repair procedure, or repaired
but with residual defect at or near the
location of prosthetic material; or in
cardiac transplant recipients with cardiac
valvulopathy
Antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent
endocarditis


During dental / respiratory
procedures : oral amoxicillin, 50
mg/kg 1 hr before
For patients allergic to penicillin:
clindamycin, 20 mg/kg
