Penicillin Types

Methicillin is a narrow-spectrum penicillin with anti-staphylococcal activity
Amoxicillin/Clavulanate is a combination of a moderate spectrum penicillin (amoxicillin) and a beta lactamase inhibitor (clavulanate)

Critical Care Workshop

The Critical Care Workshop aims to educate healthcare professionals on the management and care of critically ill patients.

Pharmacist Role in ICU

Pharmacists in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) play a vital role in optimizing medication therapy for critically ill patients.
This involves medication reconciliation, monitoring drug interactions, and managing complex drug regimens.

Medication Reconciliation

Medication reconciliation is the process of comparing a patient's current medication list with their previous medication list, ensuring drug safety and preventing medication errors.

Pharmacist Considerations for ICU Patients

Pharmacists in ICU must consider factors like renal function, hepatic function, potential drug interactions, and patient allergies when managing medication therapy.

Pharmacist Role in Resuscitation

Pharmacists may assist in the resuscitation of critically ill patients by providing expertise on drug dosages, routes of administration, and potential drug interactions.
