Tetracyclines are broad-spectrum antibiotics used to treat rickettsial disease, such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever, and when the use of penicillins is contraindicated.

Ans: B, C
Feedback:
Carbapenems include imipenem-cilastatin and meropenem. Vancomycin and aztreonam are classified as miscellaneous drugs that disrupt the bacterial cell wall. Ceftriaxone is a third-generation cephalosporin.
