Antibiotics I & II Review Flashcards
- fungal overgrowth
- most common type of superinfection
- continue administration of antibacterial agent
- treat w/ antifungal , ex: oral nystatin for GI
intestinal candidiasis
- life threatening
- discontinue admin of antibacterial agent
- treat w/ oral vancomycin (not absorbed, treats locally)
staphylococcal enterocolitis
- life threatening, caused by c/ difficile
- discontinue admin of antibacterial
- treat w/ oral metronidazole (or vancomycin)
- often caused by clindamycin

periplasmic
intracellular
penicillins primarily useful against gram positive microbes?
pen G, pen V
nafcillin, methcillin, oxacillin, dicloxacillin are __________ penicillincs
anti-staph
ampicillin, amoxacillin, piperacillin, ticarcillin are extended spectrum penicillins with increased ________ activity
gram negative
antipseudomonal penicillins effective against proteus and pseudomonas? use in combo with aminoglycoside
piperacillin, ticarcillin
beta lactam drugs that inhibit cell wall synthesis but are less susceptible to penicillinases, bactericidal
cephalosporins
cefazolin and cephalexin are ____ generation cephalosporins
1st
- good activity against gram positive and modest gram negative
- treat staph and strep cellulitis
- DOC for surgical prophylaxis
cefazolin (1st gen)
cefaclor, cefoxitin, cefuroxime, cefotetan are _____ generation cephs
2nd (fur ox with two fac tets)
- increased activity against gram negative bacteria (Ecoli, Kelbsiella, Proteus, haemophilus, moraxella catarrhalis)
- PID, diverticulitis, surgical prophylaxis for abdominal, bronchitis
uses for 2nd gen cephalosporins (cefaclor, cefoxitin, cefuroxime, cefotetan)
-ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, ceftazidime, cefpodoxime are ______ generation cephs
3rd
- decreased gram (+) but increased gram negative (enterobacter, serratia)
- pseudomonas activity
- meningitis
- CAP, lyme disease, osteomyelitis, gonorrhea
- penetrate CNS, so many useful in meningitis
3rd gen cephalosporin use
cefipime a ____ generation cephalosporin
4th
- extensive gram positive and gram neg activity
- increased resistance to beta lactamases
- reserve for situations such as neutropenic fever
4th gen ceph (cefepime)
- MRSA activity, gram negs except pseduomonas
- approved for cSSSIs and CAP
5th gen cephalosporin (ceftaroline)
- monobactam, only gram negative activity
- no anaerobe activity
- for pseudomonas use w/ an aminoglycoside
- beta lactamase resistant
- no cross reactivity to penicillin allergies
aztreonam
- broad spectrum: gram (+), (=), and anaerobes
- beta lactamase resistant
- inactivated by renal dipeptidase (co admin cilastatin)
- cross sensitivity w/ penicillin allergies
- pseduomonas resistance rapid, so use w/ aminoglycosides
carbapenems: imipenem, meropenem, doripenem, ertapenem
vancomycin inhibits _________ by binding to D-ala D-ala terminus of petidoglycan monomer
transglycosylation
vancomycin bactericidal for _______ bacteria
gram positive
vancomycin used systemically for ______
MRSA
vancomycin enhances oto and nephro toxicity of ________
aminoglycosides
- used for infections caused by gram positive, penicillin resistant organisms
- s. aureus, MRSSA, enterococci, C diff alternative treatment
vancomycin
- newer ICWS, gram positive and negative activity
- inhibits cytoplasmic step in cell wall precursor synthesis
- actively transported by G6P transporter into bacteria
- approved for single dose therapy of UTI
- actively excreted by kidney
fosfomycin
- topical antibiotic only, for gram (+) organisms
- markedly nephrotoxic
bacitracin
-inhibit dihydrofolate synthesis, bacteriostatic (-cidal when combined with trimethoprim)
sulfonamides (sulfamethoxazole, sulfadizaine)
- inhibits dihydrofolate reductase, bacteriostatic
- combo for UTIs, shigella, salmonella, pneumocystis, toxoplasmosis
