Antibiotics Flashcards
G+ cocci and bacilli; some G- cocci; spirochetes (streptococcus, treponema pallidum, neisseria gonorrhoeae): penicillins G and penicillins V
natural penicillins
B lactamase producing staph (penicillinase resistant): nafcillin, oxacillin, dicloxacillin
anti-staphylococcal
same as Pen G, plus some G- rods and bacilli; not resistant to broad spectrum B lactamases in G- organisms (H. influenzae, E coli): ampicillin, amoxicillin, cyclacillin
extended spectrum
enteric G- rods, G- bacilli; usually combined with an aminoglycoside for serious infections (pseudomonas aeruginosa, H. influenzae): ticarcillin, mezclocillin, piperacillin
anti-pseudomonal
clavulanic acid, sulbactam, tazobactam

ampicillin and augmentin
first gen. cephalosporin; similar spectrum to ampicillin; G+ cocci; some G- bacilli
cephalothin and cefazolin
second gen. cephalosporin; less active for G+ and more active for G-; H. influenza, N. meningitidis
cefoxitin, cefotetan, cefaclor
third gen. cephalosporin; enteric G-; reserve for very serious infections; crosses BBB; h. influenza, serratia
cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, cefixime
b. fragilis
cefoxitin and cefotetan
pseudomonas
ceftazidime only
fourth gen cephalosporin; increase activity for G+, B lactamase producing organisms, broad spectrum
cefepime and ceftaroline
which 4th gen ceph? p. aeruginosa, klebsiella, e coli, enterobacter, citrobacter, proteus mirabilis
cefepime
which 4th gen ceph? s aureus (MRSA and MSSA), s pneumoniae, E coli, klebsiella, enterobacter, citrobacter
cerftaroline
no current cephs have activity for …
enterococcus
3rd gen; penetrate to CSF sufficiently to be useful for treatment of meningitis
cefotaxime and ceftriaxone
extra dose required after hemodialysis except for …
ceftriaxone
disulfiram like effects w/ alcohol for cephs with N-methylthiotetrazole side chain –> i.e. …
cefotetan
B lactam ring; more resistant to beta lactamase enzymes than penicillins and cephalosporins; broadest spectrum of any b lactam; IV
