MOA of fluoroquinolones
prevents topoisomerase II in gram (-) (gyrase)
prevents topoisomerase IV in gram (+) (separates)
bactericidal, blocks DNA synthesis
Types of resistance to fluoroquinolones
GyrA/GyrB pt mutation- decrease binding to DNA gyrase
ParC/ParE pt mutation-decrease topoisomerase IV binding
increased efflux/decreased influx
plasmid resistance (inhibits fluoroquinolones)
