Antibiotics Flashcards
inhibits nucleic acid (RNA) synthesis with DDRP
Rifampin
orange sweat
Rifampin
inhibits mycolic acid synthesis
Isoniazid
Isoniazid causes what kind of deficiency?
B6
how does B6 deficiency present for izoniazid?
Seizures due to decreased GABA (B6 is needed for GABA synthesis)
Knocks of fatty acid synthase
Pyrazinamide
Most effective intracellular TB med
P
SE of Pyrazinamide?
Gout
Blocks cell wall synthesis
Ethambutol
Ethambutol SE
red-green color blindness
- Bind penicillin-binding proteins and blocks transpeptidase crosslinking
- Autolytic enzymes activates
- Resistance: altered PBPs or bacteria with production of beta-lactamases
Penicillin
- Beta-lactam that inhibits cell wall synthesis
2. Less susceptaible to beta-lactamases
Cephalosporins
afcillin, oxacillin, methicillin
Pen 2nd gen
Piperacillin
4th gen pen
Ampicillin, amoxicillin
3rd gen pen
Cefazolin, Cephalexin
First gen cephalosporin
1st gen cephalosporin tx?
PEK: proteus, E. Coli, Klebsiella
Cefaclor, Cefuroxime, cefoxitin
2nd gen cephalo
2nd gen cephalo treatment?
HEN: Hemophilus, enterbacter, niesseria
Ceftaroline
5th gen cephalo
Ceftaroline treats?
MRSA
Imipenem, meropenem, ertapenem
Carbapenems
Imipenem taken with?
cilastatin
- Inhibits cell wall synthesis
- Synergistic with aminoglycosides
- No cross-allergy with penicillin
- Resistant to most beta-lactamases
Monobactams
30s inhibitors?
AT Aminoglycosides Tetracycline
50 s inhibitors
o C: Choramphenicol, Clindamycin
o E: Erythromycine
o L: Linezolid
- Disrupts initiation complex and causes mRNA misreading
- Aerobic gram-negative rods
- Requires Oxygen
- ALOe: Aminoglycosides, Loops, Ototoxicity
- Nephrotoxic
- Teratogen causes deafness
Aminoglycosides
- Prevents attachment of aminoacyl t-RNA to A site on 30s
- Doxycycline elimination via feces (Tx for lyme)
- DO NOT take with divalent cations
- Kids: causes teeth discoloration
- Adults: photosensitivity
- VACUUM The BedRoom (Vibrio, Acne, Chlamydia, Ureaplasma Urealyticum, Mycoplasma, Tularaemia, H. Pylori, Borrelia (Lyme), Rickettsia)
Tetracycline
- Blocks Peptidyl transferase
- Resistance: plasmid-encoded acetyltransferase
- Causes aplastic anemia and grey baby syndrome
- Treat meningitis bc cheap and very lipophilic and can penetrate BBB
Chloramphenicol
- Blocks peptide bond formation
- Anaerobix infection ABOVE diaphram (Below in metronidazole)
- Lung abscesses or aspiration pneumo
- Associated with C.diff infection
Clindamycin
- Blocks translocation step (via binding to 23s rRNA of 50s subunit)
- Tx for atypical pneumo
- SE: QT prolongation and GI symptoms, cholestatic hepatitis
- Inhibits p450 (bleeding tendencies in pts on warfarin)
Macrolides
Erythromycin
Azithromycin
Clarithromycin
Macrolides
DO NOT CONFUSE WITH aminoglycosides that also end in -mycin
