cephalosporins
Floxin
Ofloxacin
(Fluoroquinolones)
(MOA: Inhibits DNA-gyrase, inhibits relaxation of supercoiled DNA and promotes breakage of double-stranded DNA)
Zinacef
Cefuroxime
cephalosporins
Cipro
Ciprofloxacin
(Fluoroquinolones)
(MOA: Inhibits DNA-gyrase, inhibits relaxation of supercoiled DNA and promotes breakage of double-stranded DNA)
Bactrim
Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim
(Sulfonamides)
(MOA: Sulfamethoxazole interferes with bacterial folic acid synthesis and growth via inhibition of dihydrofolic acid formation from para-aminobenzoic acid;
trimethoprim inhibits dihydrofolic acid reduction to tetrahydrofolate resulting in sequential inhibition of enzymes of the folic acid pathway)

Primaxin
Imipenem and Cilastatin
carbapenem and dehydropeptidase inhibtor to prevent renal breakdown for carbapenem
Tetracycline
Tetracycline
(Tetracyclines)
(MOA: Inhibits protein synthesis by binding with the 30S ribosomal subunit)
Avelox
Moxifloxacin
(Fluoroquinolones)
(MOA: Inhibits DNA-gyrase, inhibits relaxation of supercoiled DNA and promotes breakage of double-stranded DNA)
Unasyn
Ampicillin and Sulbactam
Penicillin and Beta-lactamase inhibitor
