Antibiotics Flashcards
Bind PBPs to inhibit cross-linking of PG. Used for some gram +, N meningitis, T pallidum. Beta-lactamase sensitive
Penicillin G, V
PCN SE
HSR, hemolytic anemia
PCN MOR
Beta lactamase
Bind PBPs to inhibit cross-linking of PG. Used for H flu, E coli, Listeria, Proteus, Salmonella, Shigella, enterococci (HELPSS kille enterococci). Beta lactamase sensitive.
Ampicillin, Amoxicillin (better oral availability)
Ampicillin SE
HSR, rash, pseudomembraous colitis
Ampicillin MOR
Beta lactamase
Bind PBPs to inhibit cross-linking of PG. Resistant to beta-lactamase due to bulky R group
oxacillin, nafcillin, dicloxacillin
Oxacillin CU
MSSA (MRSA has an altered PBP target site)
Oxacillin SE
HSR, interstitial nephritis
Antipseudomonals
Ticarcillin, piperacillin
Piperacillin CU
Pseudomonas and gram negative rods, with beta-lactamase inhibitors
Beta lactamase inhibitors
Clavulanic acid, sulbactam, taxobactam
Pipercillin SE
HSR
Cefazolin, Cephalein
1G - Gram + and Proteus, E coli, Klebsiella (PEcK)
Cefoxitin, Cefaclor, Cefuroxime
2G - H flu, Enterobacter, Neisseria, Proteus, E coli, Klebsiella, Serratia (HEN PEcKS)
Ceftriaxone
3G - Serious gram negative infections, esp meningitis and gonorrhea
Ceftazidime
3G - Serious gram negative infections, esp Pseudomonas
Cefepime
4G - increased activity against Pseudomonas and gram +
Ceftaroline
5G - MRSA (broad gram + and - coverage, but not pseudomonas)
Cephalosporin SE
HSR, vitamin K deficiency, increase nephrotoxicity of aminoglycosides
Monobactam that binds PBP3 to inhibit cross-linking of PG. Beta-lactmase resistant. Synergistic with aminoglycosides
Aztreonam
Aztreonam CU
Gram neg rods only!
Carbapenem must be administered with this inhibitor of renal dehydropeptidase I to decrease inactivation of drug in renal tubuels
cilastin
Carbapenem SE
CNS toxicity (seizures) at high plasma levels.
Binds D-Ala-D-Ala to prevent PG synthesis
Vanco
Vanco CU
GRAM POS ONLY
- MRSA
- Enterococci
- C diff
Vanco SE
Nephrotoxicity, Ototoxicity, Thrombophlebitis, Red man syndrome (prevent with anti-histamine pretreatment)
Van MOR
D-ala-D-ala to D-ala-D-lac
30S inhibitors
Aminoglycosides and tetracyclines
50S inhibitors
Chloramphenicol, Clindamycin, Macrolides, Linezolid
Aminoglycosides (Mean GNATS cannot kill anaerobes)
Gentamicin, Neomycin, Amikacin, Tobramycin, Streptomycin
Prevent formation of inhibition complex –> misreading of mRNA, block translation
Aminoglycosides
Aminoglycoside CU
Severe gram neg rod infxns. Ineffective against anaerobes
Aminoglycoside SE
Nephrotoxicity, NMB, Ototoxicity, Teratogen
Aminoglycoside MOR
Bacterial transferase enzymes inactivate the drug by acetylation, phosphorylation, or adenylation
Binds 30s and prevents attachment of aa-tRNA
Tetracycline
