How Can Panniculitis Be Treated?
My father has pennaculitis and was in Vanderbilt ICU for two weeks. They have released him and he is administering antibiotics via PIC line. We just found out after having blood work done, (I don t recall the exact wording of what he said) but his kidneys are no longer able to withstand the strong antibiotics so he has to discontinue the antibiotics. Is there anything else that can be done?

Sorry to hear that.
There may be a need to see your treating physcian, he may probably adjust/reduce the dosage or prescribe a new kidney-friendly antibiotic.
I hope I have been able to answer you, if not i would be happy to hear from you again
