D010406	Penicillins	A group of antibiotics that contain 6-aminopenicillanic acid with a side chain attached to the 6-amino group. The penicillin nucleus is the chief structural requirement for biological activity. The side-chain structure determines many of the antibacterial and pharmacological characteristics.

D017714	Community-Acquired Infections	Any infection acquired in the community, that is, contrasted with those acquired in a health care facility (CROSS INFECTION).
