A career that combines DNA technology and medicine is pharmaceuticals. A knowledge of both is needed in this field.

Penicillin would be most likely to help a patient who is found to be suffering from a bacterial infection. Penicillin is used for bacterial infections, while insulin is used for diabetics, the flu shot is used to prevent flu, a human growth hormone would not fight a bacterial infection.
