Antibiotic MOA Flashcards
Penicillins
Inhibits penicillin binding protein directly
Aminopenicillins
added side chains to increase the selectivity to Inhibit penicillin binding protein directly
Penicillinase Resistant Penicillins
Avoids binding with penicillinase/betalactamase so that it can still bind to the penicillin binding protein and inhibit it
Aminopenicillins/Betalactamse inhibitor
binds to betalactamase and penicillin binding protein and directly inhibits both
Antipseudomonal penicillins/betalactamase inhibitors
binds to betalacatmase and penicillin binding protein and directly inhibits both
Antipseudomonal penicillins
directly inhibits penicillin binding protein
1st gen cephs
Directly inhibits PBP
2nd gen cephs
Directly inhibits PBP
3rd gen cephs
Directly inhibits PBP
4th gen cephs
Directly inhibits PBP
5th gen cephs
Directly inhibits PBP
ceph/betalactamase inhibitors
Directly inhibits PBP
Carbapanems
Directly inhibits PBP
Monobactams
Directly inhibits PBP
Glycopeptides
indirectly inhibits PBP from crosslinking peptidoglycan by sitting on the side chains of bacteria
