Abstract
A 60-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with productive cough and yellowish sputum, severe fatigue, and weight loss of 4 kg over the past month; furthermore, he reported a slowly progressive shortness of breath on exertion over the past 6 months. Before admission, he received ampicillin/sulbactam (750 mg) orally twice daily for 7 days without significant clinical improvement.
