What are 4 types of penicillin?
natural penicillin, long-acting penicillin, penicillinase-resistant (antistaphylococcal) penicillin, and aminopenicillin.
What is the mood of action for penicillins?
They bind to the penicillin binding protein (PBP) on bacterial cell wall and inhibit cell wall synthesis. PBP is important in making, maintaining, and cross linking the peptidoglycan layer.
What antibiotics are in the category of natural penicillins?
Penicillin G + potassium or sodium and Penicillin V.
What antibiotics are considered long-acting penicillins?
Penicillin G Benzathine and Penicillin G Procaine.
