    The document compares antibiotics used to treat different types of bacteria and clinical infections. Gram-positive bacteria are generally treated with vancomycin, penicillin, cephalosporins, clindamycin, and erythromycin. Gram-negative bacteria are usually treated with cephalosporins, aminoglycosides, and fluoroquinolones. It then lists various clinical infections and the recommended antibiotics for treating each one, such as penicillin for meningitis, vancomycin for MRSA, fluoroquinolones for pseudomonas infections, and tetracycline for rickettsial infections.
