Primary Prevention

Appropriate antibiotic therapy of acute pharyngitis due to Group A streptococci (GAS) prevents first attacks of acute RF.

Secondary Prevention

Secondary prevention is directed at preventing acute GAS pharyngitis in patients at substantial risk of recurrent acute RF which should begin as soon as the diagnosis of acute RF has been made and immediately after a full course of antibiotic therapy has been completed.
