Usually initial therapy is empirical. If sufficient reason to suspect [[influenza]] one might consider [[amantadine]] or [[rimantadine]]. In case of [[legionellosis]] [[erythromicin]] or [[fluoroquinolone]]. A third generation [[cephalosporin]] (ceftazidime) + [[carbapenems]] (imipenem) + beta lactam & beta lactamase inhibitors (piperacillin/tazobactum)
