antimicrobials Flashcards
Penicillin G
MOA:
PK:
Allergy:
Anaphylaxis
first generation beta-lactamase sensitive penicillin
MOA: beta lactam, bacteriacidal
PK: 90% renal tubular excretion.
Allergy in 10% of pop.
anaphylaxis is 0.004 to 0.04%,
mortality in 10%
Amoxicillin
Class:
MOA:
2nd generation beta-lactamase sensitive PCN
MOA: beta-lactam bactericidal
Ampicillin
MOA:
Pk:
2nd generation beta-lactamase sensitive PCN
MOA: beta-lactam, bactericidal
Pk: 50% excreted unchanged by the kidney 6 hours after dose
In the anesthesia cart!
Carbenicillin
class:
SE:
3rd generation beta-lactamase sensitive PCN
Unique! r/t lots of SE
- High sodium load (30-40 mg) -> caution in CHF
- Hypokalemia
- Metabolic Alkalosis
- Prolonged bleeding time despite normal platelet count also needs renal dose.
carbenicillin is avoided in CHF r/t
high sodium load, 30-40 mg
beta-lactamase resistant PCNs are affective against
staph aureus
but otherwise are narrow spectrum agents
Nafcillin
class:
Pk:
Excretion:
beta-lactamase resistant PCN!
- Good for staph aureus, otherwise narrow spectrum
penetrates the CNS 80%
secreted in BILE!
GOOD FOR RENAL!
PCN for patients renal dysfunction:
Nafcillin
beta-lactamse resistant PCN
80% secreted in bile
Dicloxacillin
class:
beta-lactamase resistant PCN
Oxacillin
class:
beta-lactamase resistant PCN
Unasyn [ampicillin/sulbactam]
beta-lactamase sensitive / beta-lactamase resistant PCN
amoxicillin/clavulanic acid [augmentin]
beta-lactamase sensitive / beta-lactamase resistant PCN
ticarcillin/clavulanic acid [timentin]
beta-lactamase sensitive / beta-lactamase resistant PCN
pipercillin/tazobactam [zosyn]
beta-lactamase sensitive / beta-lactamase resistant PCN
Cephalosporin MOA:
Cephalosporins also have a beta-lactam ring,
so function by binding to pencillin binding proteins,
inhibiting transpeptidase, and
activating autolysins.
Cephalosporins are usually excreted
via renal route
**exception = ceftriaxone
Bleeding Concerns with Cephalosporins:
cefoperazone, cefotetan, ceftriaxone
These inhibit the conversion of vitamin K to active form, inhibits factors 2, 4, 10 and prothrombin.
Cefuroxime
class:
2nd generation cephalosporin
DOES cross placenta
Cefoxitin
class
2nd genration cephalosporin
Cefemetazole
class
SE:
2nd generation cephalosporin
Anta-abuse agent
Cefotetan
Class:
SE:
Interacts:
2nd generation cephalosporin
r/f bleeding
- r/t inhibits conversion of vitamin K to active form
- Antabuse drug!!!
- Interacts with anti-plt / anti-coag drugs
Ceftazidime
Class:
3rd generation cephalosporin
Cefotaxime
Class:
3rd generation cephalosporin
Ceftriaxone
Class:
Pk:
SE:
Interacts:
3rd generation cephalosporin
- Has some renal excretion but significant liver metabolism Longest e1/2 time of cephalosporins
- R/F bleeding r/t inhibits conversion of vitamin K to active form
- Interacts with anti-platelet drugs / anti-coags
- FORMS PRECIPITATES WITH CALCIUM - fatal, neonates
