Antimicrobials I Flashcards
PCN G
IV/IM form
PCN V
oral form
penicillin
bind PCN-binding protein - transpeptidase
-blocks crosslinking peptidoglycan
coverage of PCN
gram positive organisms
gram neg cocci - neisseria meningitidis
spirochetes - t. pallidum
resistance to PCN
penicillinase - beta-lactamase
cleaves beta lactam ring
amoxicillin
penicillinase sensitive PCN
-aminopenicillin
ampicillin
penicillinase sensitive PCN
-aminopenicillin
coverage of amoxicillin and ampicillin

adverse of amoxicillin/ampicillin
pseudomembranous colitis
rash with amoxicillin or ampicillin
consider underlying mononucleosis infection
aminoPCN rxn
dicloxacillin
penicillinase resistant penicillin
nafcillin
penicillinase resistant penicillin
oxacillin
penicillinase resistant penicillin
penicillinase resistant penicillin
resistant to penicillinase - bc of bulky R group
blocks access of beta-lactamase
coverage of penicillin resistant penicillins
staph aureus
not MRSA
piperacillin
antipseudomonal
ticarillin
antipseudomonal
antipseudomonals
