A

unasyn

48
Q

piperacillin and taxobactam =

A

zosyn

49
Q

Name all the drugs (or categories) that target cell wall synthesis – there are 11.

A 
Natural Penicillins
Penicillinase resistant
Aminopenicillins
Anti-pseudomonal penicillins
Cephalosporins
Aztreonam
Carbapenems
Vancomycin
Bacitracin
Daptomycin
50
Q

How do Beta lactam drugs work?

A

Bind to the Transpeptidase penicillin binding protein and prevent transpeptidation!
Transpeptidation covalently bonds chains of peptidoglycan, making rigid cells walls. Without a rigid cell wall, bacteria undergo lysis.

51
Q

What do all Beta Lactam drugs need to work?

A

Require actively proliferating organisms, need organisms with peptidoglycans, and should be dosed for T>MIC (Type II TIme dependent dosing)

52
Q

Name the Beta Lactam drugs:

A

Natural penicillins, Aminopenicillins, penicillinase resistant penicillins, antipseudomonal penicllins, cephalosporins and carbapenems

53
Q

Name the non Beta Lactam drugs

A

Bacitracin, Vancomycin and daptomycin
