- AIt has a longer half life than penicillin
- BCeftriaxone penetrates better than penicillin into CSF
- CMost bacteria that cause meningitis are now penicillin resistant.
- DCeftriaxone also has activity against Listeria

- BShe should abstain from sex for the one week of her doxycycline treatment
- CShe can continue to have sex provided condoms are used.
- DShe can continue to have unprotected sex during Doxycycline treatment as female to male transmission is low.

19In septic patients, Gentamicin is typically only given for 3 days, for gram negative cover in days following this Gentamicin should be swapped out for [blank_start]Aztreonam[blank_end] to avoid possible gentamicin toxicity.
- AAztreonam
- BImipenem
- CErtapenem
- DTrimethoprim
20Empirical Antibiotics for Sepsis in a patient who is hypersensitive to penicillin are ...

- BDoxycycline, Gentamicin, Metronidazole
- CCeftriaxone, Gentamicin, Metronidazole
- DVancomycin, Gentamicin, Metronidazole
21Gentamicin is known to penetrate into the CSF thus making it more important to regulate its levels due to potential toxicity.
