Q

gout drug and why mentioned

A

Probenecid
it inhibits the tubular secretion of a # of acids including
1. penicillin
2. cephalosporins
3. fluoroquinolines
therefore it increases the half life of these drugs

Q

MOA of the 1 UTI drug we know

A

nitrofurantoin

bacteria metabolize drug to active form
active form–> inhibits enzymes and damages DNA

Q

what is the purpose of probenecid?

A

probenecid= anti gout drug

BUT–> inhibits tubular secretion of # of acids including

	1. penicillins
	2. cephalosporins
	3. Fluoroquinolines therefore: can give probenecid if you want to increase the half life of antibiotic
16
Q

What do fluoroquinolines generally target?

A

gram -; BUT 3rd and 4th gen can kill bacteroides (anaerobic) and clostridium ( but not difficile)
ALSO give 3rd and 4th gen FQ for penicillin and macrolide resistant Strept. pneumoniae

17
Q

MOA of fluroquinoline, function of the enzyme it inhibits

A

inhibit DNA gyrase= topoisomerase 2

enzyme that relaxes + supercoils in the DNA–> this allows for normal transcription and replication

18
Q

What do you have to remember about FQ?

A

DNA gyrase/topoisomerase 2–> relaxes + supercoiling

+ supercoiling= tension–> - replication
no topoisomerase 2= no DNA replication

FQ= bactericidal

19
Q

2nd gen fluoroquinolines and their spectrum

A
  1. ciprofloxacin
  2. ofloxacin

broad= lots of gram -

20
Q

3rd gen fluroquinolines and their spectrum

A
  1. levo-floxacin
  2. moxi-floxacin

very broad= gram - and +

21
Q

4th gen fluoroquinolines and their spectrum

A

gemi-floxacin

very broad= gram - and +

22
Q

which fluoroquinolines are considered broad enough to be affective against Strept. pneumoniae

A

3rd and 4th generation bc they are so broad

active for penicillin and macrolide resistant Strept. pneumoniae

23
Q

How do you get resistance to FQ?

A
  1. mutation in bacterial DNA gyrase/topoisomerase 2–> decreases affinity of drug for enzyme
  2. decreased penetration or increased efflux of drug= decreased accumulation of drug in bacterial cells
24
Q

do you have to adjust the dose of FQ for renal failure?

A

yes, all FQ are filtered at the glomerulus

25
Q

Adverse effects of FQ?

A

generally well tolerated
1. effect COLLAGEN METABOLISM AND CARTILAGE DEVELOPMENT–> think CT
CAN CAUSE TENDONITIS AND TENDON RUPTURES IN ADULTS
2. GI upset
3. phototoxicity (like tetracyclines)

26
Q

You need to avoid antacid use (Mg2+ and Al3+) and iron and zinc supplements when you take which 2 drugs?
aka metal chelation

A
  1. fluoroquinolines

2. tetracyclines

27
Q

What are the miscellaneous DNA antibiotics

A
  1. metro-nid-azole= flagyl

2. dapto-mycin= cubicin

28
Q

Which drugs should you not take concurrently with antacid or zinc and iron supplements?

A
  1. Tetracyclines

2. Fluoroquinolines
