The answer is B.


Levofloxacin is effective against strains both moderately and highly resistant to penicicillin, and in case of doubt is one of the drugs of choice (together with two other fluoroquinolones – Gatifloxacin and Moxifloxacin). Vancomycin should not be used to start empiric therapy because of its serious side effects. Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim is not recommended for the treatment of streptococcal infections in general.
