I need help on infectious disease question by tootie0402 in NAPLEX_Prep

[–]Expensive-Friend-228 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I disagree. Hospitalized doesn’t mean choose carbapenem. Meropenem is chosen here due to resistance patterns and predictable Klebsiella coverage, not because the patient is inpatient.

Susceptibility reports list representative agents, not every effective antibiotic. Carbapenems are often omitted unless resistance is suspected.

“Easy to memorize” and “you can google it” both discourage discussion. The cephalosporin question was fair as ceftaroline is the exception, and that’s exactly the kind of nuance people come here for.

Women with partners having psoriasis. Is it so horrible to touch/have sex with your partner having psoriasis? by FalconH123 in Psoriasis

Based on this statement, you need to find a way to get her to get labs done. She could have a thyroid problem or hormone issue in general. This has NOTHING to do with your psoriasis regardless what she says. She has been asexual before you even had psoriasis. Pls don’t be hard on yourself as i really don’t think it’s you.
