Which of the following IV antibiotics does not require refrigeration?

  1. Metronidazole

  2. Bactrim

  3. Doxycycline

  4. Both A and B

The correct answer is: Both A and B

Explanation Option A (Metronidazole) and option B (Bactrim) are both IV antibiotics that require refrigeration. This leaves us with options C (Doxycycline) and D (both A and B) to choose from. While it is true that Doxycycline is one of the most commonly used IV antibiotics, it does require refrigeration and therefore is not the correct answer. This leaves us with option D as the correct answer, as both Metronidazole and Bactrim do not require refrigeration.
