Antibiotics Flashcards
Aminopenicillins:
Penicillin with extended spectrum : Gram+ and Gram-
Examples are Ampicillin and Amoxicillin
Beta lactamase Sensitive
Sterptogramins (Quinupristin/dalphopristin):
Mode of Action, Target, Effect
MOA: Binding 50S -prevents peptide bond elongation, as well as initiates premature
release of peptide
For VRSA and VRA
Bactericidal
Cephalosporins:
Side Effects
Allergy - Cross Reaction with Peniciline
Might Cause Gallstones - Ceftriaxone
Penicillin types according to Introduction
G - IV introduced
V - Orally Introduced
Cephalosporins:
5th Generation - Examples and Targets
Ceftarolin - For MRSA
Ceftobiprole - For Pseudomonas
Glycopeptides:
Examples
Toxicity
Absorption
Effect
Vancomycin and Teicoplanin
Oto- and Nephrotoxic
Local Effect and Treatment for MRSA
Cephalosporins:
3rd Generation - Examples and Targets
Ceftriaxone
For Gram+ and Gram-
Cephalosporins:
2nd Generation - Examples and Targets
Cefuroxime, Cefprozil and Cefaclor
For Gram+ and Gram-
Daptomycin:
Targets and Spectrum
Used against Vancomycin resistant Enterococci and Staph. Infections.
Only efficient for Gram+ (Cannot cross Gram- Membrane)
ESBL
Targets
Bacteria capable of producing it
Genetic Component containing it
Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase
Hydrolyze Penicillines and Cephlosporines (up to 3rd Generation)
Gram Negative Bacteria
Plasmids
Peniciliinase (Beta-Lactamase) Resistnat Peniciline :
Side Effects
Allergy - Breaking down the penicilline is forming derivaties and these molecules are antigenic - Induce antibody production causing: Erythema, Fever, Arthritis.
Might cause Diarrhea
Aminoglicosides:
Resistance Options and Side effects
Resistance Options:
Receptor Mutation of 30S/ Enzymatic Degredation coded by Plasmids/ Efflux-Pump
Side Effects:
Oto- and Nephrotoxicity
In high doses it is Neurotoxic
Chloramphenicol:
Spectrum, Effect and MOA
Spectrum: Gram+ and Gram-
Effect: Bactriostatic, binds to 50S -Peptidyltransferase
What is the key component for the resistance of VRSA and PRP?
Penicillin Binding Protein (PBP)
Aminoglicosides:
Examples and Mode of Action
Streptomycin, Gentamycin, Amikacin, Kanamycin, Tobramycin, Netilmicin
Proteins Synthesis Inhibitor: Irreiversible Binding to 30S subunit, as a result tRNA cannot bind to ribosome - Bactericidal
Polymyxin Resistance Mechanism
LPS calation with Mg and Ca causes positive charge to trap Polymyxin outside the cell
Tetracycline:
Side effects and Resistance
Side effects: Forms a complex in bone with Calcium which colorize enamel
Resistance: Mutation
Macrolides:
Examples and Spectrum
Erythromycin,Azithromycin,Clarithromycin,Spiramycin
Gram+ Cocci, Legionella, Mycoplasma, Chlamydia Trachomatis
Daptomycin:
Assembly with.. , MOA
Binds Calcium to form oligomeric Assemby with Lipid tails pointing inwards.
Loose micelles serve to deliver Daptomycin to the bacterial membrane in Detergent form - Leading to Leakage of Cytosolic Contents
Cephalosporins:
1st Generation - Examples and Targets
Cephlexin and Cefazolin
For Gram + Cocci
Rifamycin B (Rifampin):
MOA, Spectrum
Inhibition of mRNA Synthesis
Spectrum - Gram+ Cocci and Mycobacteria
(Sketchy mentions some Gram- too…)
Lincosamides (Clindamycin):
Mode of Action, Effect, Antagonism with what drug
Binding 50S - Inhibits peptidyl-transferase
Bacterostatic
Antagonistic with Macrolides
Metronidazole - Nitroimidazole:
Conditions of Effectiveness, MOA, Overall Effect
Only in Anaerobic Conditions - Reduction to Radicals
MOA - Damage to Nucleic acids synthesis by Radicals
Bactericidal
Chloramphicol, Clindamycin, Macrolides, Sulfonamides, Tetracyclines and Timethoprim are all Bacterio_____ antibiotics.
Chloramphicol, Clindamycin, Macrolides, Sulfonamides, Tetracyclines and Timethoprim are all Bacteriostatic antibiotics.
Peniciliinase (Beta-Lactamase) Resistnat Peniciline :
Examples
(Aka Very Narrow Spectrum)
Methicilline
Nafcillin
Oxacillin
