If you were a doctor, and a lab technician told you that the results of a patient’s lab results were Gram-positive, what antibiotics would you prescribe for the patient? Why?

Any broad spectrum antibiotics can be used against bacterial infection, but beta-lactams like penicillin, amoxicillin and cephalosporin as well as macrolides are more effective againts gram-positive bacteria.
