Q

MOA of B Lactam drugs

A

Bacterial cell wall is cross-linked polymer of polysaccharides and pentapeptides

Penicillins interact with cytoplasmic membrane-binding proteins
(PBPs)
to ……inhibit transpeptidation reactions involved in cross-linking,
the final steps in cell-wall synthesis

Q

Mechanisms of resistance

A

1)Penicillinases (beta-lactamases) break lactam ring structure (e.g.,staphylococci)

2)Structural change in PBPs (e.g., methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus
aureus [MRSA], penicillin-resistant pneumococci)

3)Change in porin structure (e.g., Pseudomonas)

Q

why is imipenem given with cilastatin

A

cilastatin is a renal DEHYDROPEPTIDASE INHIBITOR

hence it inhibits renal metabolism of imipenem to a nephrotoxic metabolite
