What this study is testing
The overall aims of the AMIC study are to study the clinical efficacy of antibiotics in children with CWC with respect to resolution of symptoms and long-term outcomes as well as the impact of airway and gut microbiome, inflammation and genetics. 1.1 Intervention 1: Is response to treatment in children with CWC higher in those receiving 14 days treatment with amoxicillin-clavulanate than placebo? 1.2 Intervention 2: Is the time to relapse of CWC different for those having received 14 days duration of therapy compared to those having received 28 days duration of therapy with amoxicillin-clavulanate?
