French Inhibitors of Protein Synth Flashcards
antibiotics that inhibiting protein synthesis?
Macrolides , Tetrocyclines, Lincomycins, Aminoglycosides, chloramphenicol, oxazolidinones, streptogamins
antibiotics that inhibiting INITIATION of protein synthesis?
AGs,TCNs
antibiotics that inhibiting ELONGATION of protein synthesis?
Chloramphenicol, MACs (Erythro), clindamycin
Mech of action of MACs (Azithromycin)?
static - inhibit protein synthesis at same site as Cindamycin
How do bacteria become resistant to MACs?
alter target (50S ribosome), efflux drug, inactivate drug
How to administer Azithromycin?
PO on empty stomach
MAC absorption?
good PO (some IV avilable)
MAC distribution?
wide - goes to fetu. Accumultes in macs, skin, lungs, tonsils, cervix, sputum
Azithromycin metabolism?
not metabolized - biliary excretion
Dosing for Azithromycin?
QD - high tissue penetration & slow release
MOST common clinical use for MACs?
G+ cocci (Strep & Staph), Atypicals (Chlamydia & mycoplasma)
Adverse reactions caused by MACs?
GI disturbance, hepatotoxicity, prolonged QT interval
DDI with MACs?
Erythromicin & clarithromycin can inhibit CYP450
How do MACs cause GI upset?
drug (especially erythro) binds motilin receptor
Do all MACs cause DDIs?
no! remember ACE (Azithro is A-ok, but Clarithro & Erythro Cause Effect)
Mech of action for TCNs?
static - binds 30S ribosome
How are TCNs selective?
host cells have efflux protein
resistance to TCNs?
MDR receptors (efflux), proteins that bind TCN
TCN absorption?
PO (impaired by milk products)
TCN distribution?
Fetus!
TCN elimination?
Doxy/mino = hepatic, other TCNs = renal
Spectrum of use for TCN?
Broad
common clinical use for TCNs?
MRSA, Atypicals (chlamydia, mycoplasma)
