A

Clarithromycin interacts with carbamazipine increasing the concentration of carba

39
Q

Daptomycin not given for pulmonary infections, why?

A

Interacts invitro with pulmonary surfactants resulting in inhibition of antibacterial activity

40
Q

Q

Chloramphenicol heamatological side effects?

A

Anemia, leucopenia, Thrombocytopenia

42

43
Q

Prolonged mino therapy side effects?

A

skin, nail, sclera pigmentation

idiopathic intracranial hypertension due to prolonged use (all tetracyclines)

44
Q

which antibiotic causes deposition in growing bones, teeth?

A

Tetracyclines

45
Q

General side effects of tetracyclines?

A

Photosensitivity, vertigo, angioedema, black hairy tongue

46
Q

Sulfonamide contraindicated in blood dyscrasias?

A

Trimethoprim - can lead to disorders of haematopoiesis so regular blood counts needed if prolonged treatment

47
Q

Sulfonamide contraind with methotrexate? causes?

A

Trimethorpim - causes fatal myelosuppresion because folate antagonists and risk of haematological side effects

48
Q

Which fluoroquinolone interacts with phenytoin? causes?

A

Ciprofloxacin + phenytoin causes reduced concentration of phenytoin
