Q
  1. Antibiotics. Basic principles of antibiotic therapy. Mechanisms of formation of resistance to antibiotics. Side effects of antibiotics
A

-Princples of antibiotcs action
1. cell wall mechanism :
The mechanism is for all penicillins groups is the same , Penicillin bind to (PBP - Penicillin binding protein ) on the bacterial cell wall and inhibits the transpeptidse enzyme which is inhibite the transpeptades reaction , which is synthesis the walls of the cell , then it’s activates the autolytic enzyme called autolysin leading to cell rapture which is result of of cell wall inhibition and autolysis
-NB! The penicillin mechanism requires proliferation microorganisms, have no effect of bacteria that not dividing
2.protein synthasis mechasim
3.DNA and RNA mechaism
4.antifolic acid mechansim
5.PFOR mechansim
NB!all these mechasim will be explaned in the further quastions
— resistant:
1.Enzymatic hydrolysis of the beta-lactam ring results in loss
of antibacterial activity. The formation of beta-lactamases
(penicillinases) by most staphylococci and many Gram-negative
organisms is a major mechanism of bacterial resistance. Inhibitors of these bacterial enzymes (eg, clavulanic acid, sulbactam, tazobactam) are often used in combination with penicillins to prevent their inactivation. Structural change in target PBPs is another mechanism of resistance and is responsible for methicillin resistance in staphylococci and for resistance to penicillin G in pneumococci (eg, PRSP, penicillin resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae)
and enterococci. In some Gram-negative rods (eg, Pseudomonas
aeruginosa), changes in the porin structures in the outer cell wall membrane may contribute to resistance by impeding access of penicillins to PBPs
1-MRSA ( methilin resistant staphylococcus aureus )
2-Some E-Coli
3-Psudomons
4-some streptococci
2.Genatic by virtical and horizantal
3.after bactiral death some particals transmeted to another bacteria and form resistant to the drug
–Side effect : most side effect cause these side effects :
1-Allergic reaction : it occurs with all types of penicillin, and its not duo to penicillin it self but to degradation products common to all penicillin it more commonly in parental
2-Diarrhea: disruption of the balance of intestinal
microorganisms. It occurs to a greater extent with those
agents that are incompletely absorbed and have an
extended antibacterial spectrum. Pseudomembranous
colitis from Clostridium difficile may occur with penicillin use
3-Nephritis
4–Neurotoxicity: The penicillins can provoke seizures if injectedintrathecally or if very high blood levels. Epileptic patients are particularly at risk due to the ability of penicillins to cause GABAergic inhibition

Q
  1. Sodium-glucose transporter inhibitor-2. Example of drug prescription. Pharmacological characteristic of the drugs used for CHF (congestive heart failure).
A
  • family of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor ( SGLT-2 )
    -drug: Dapagoiflozin tab 0,005
    -mechanism of action : increase the urine glucose and sodium secretion , By inhibiting SGLT2, dapagliflozin blocks reabsorption of filtered glucose in the kidney, increasing urinary glucose excretion and reducing blood glucose levels. Its mechanism of action is independent of pancreatic β cell function and modulation of insulin sensitivity.
    -pharmacological effect :
    1- decrease Bp
    2-body wight loss
    -side effect :
    1-polyuria
    2-hypotension
    3-hyperkalimia
  • Uses :
    1-:in T2DM in case of the patient has renal or haptic failure and cant take metformin
    2- CHF : duo to Increase circulating ketone bodies: SGLT2 inhibitors increase circulating ketones – byproducts of breaking down fat, especially in the fasting state. Ketones are very efficient energy producers for the heart, so in theory, this may decrease oxygen demand and reduce the heart’s workload
