Antibiotics Flashcards
3 mechanisms of Penicillin resistance
- Beta-lactamases
- Structural changes of BPB (PEM)
- Porins
DOC for Syphilis
Penicillin
This drug inhibitits Penicillin renal tubular secretion, hence prolonging the effect of Penicillin

Methicillin
Anti-staphylococcal penicillin that causes NEUTROPENIA
N-N
Nafcillin
Structure added to Penicillin to become Anti-staphylococcal penicillin
Isoxazolyl
Extended spectrum penicillins / Aminopenicillins

Ampicillin
Side effect of Aminopenicillins/Extended spectrum penicillins
