Hello!
There are only a few antibiotics that can penetrate infected pancreatic necrosis, a complication of acute necrotizing pancreatitis. These are carbapenems, quinolones and metronidazole.
How do I remember these antibiotics? Mnemonic!
Remember the antibiotics that can "Fly, take a Car or a Metro" to the pancreas.
Fly: Fluoroquinolones
Car: Carbapenems
Metro: Metronidazole
That's all!
