24
certain agents inhibit cell wall synthesis or create a hole in the blank
lipid bilayer
25
example of cell wall synthesis inhibitor
penicillin, cephalosporins, polymixin b
26
examples of protein synthesis inhibitors
tetracyclines, erythromycin, aminoglycosides
27
drugs decreasing dna synthesis do so by inhibiting blank production or do so directly
folic acid
28
dna rna inhibitors examples
sulfonamides, fluroquinolones, trimethoprim, metronidazole, rifampin
29
strains developing natural defense against drugs
resistance
30
common resistant bacteria strains
vrsa, mrsa, vre, prsp
31
preventing bacterial resistance should be done by avoiding blank and using blank whenever possible
overuse, narrow spectrum
32
a second drug can be used to overcome blank
resistance
33
fluoroquinolones have a rehab concern because they can cause blank damage
tendon
34
antiviral drugs are very blank and we only have a few of them that work
specific
35
antiviral drugs inhibit viral blank
enzymes
36
antiviral drugs are blank rather than virucidal
virustatic
37
small proteins produced endogenously
interferons
38
interferons control cell blank and control blank responses
division, immune
39
interferons often encourage cells to create blank enzymes
antiviral
40
interferon 2b treats
hep c hep b and condylomata
41
interferon n3 treats
condylomata
42
interferon 1 treats
hep c
43
antiviral blank stimulate immune system to make virus specfic antibodies
vaccines
44
retrovirus that attaks t4 lymphocytes
hiv
45
loss of lymphocytes causes blank immune function
impaired
46
two anti hiv drugs
protease inhibitors, reverse transcriptase inhibitors
47
prevent conversion of viral rna to viral dna
reverse transcriptase inhibitors
48
nucleoside rti's act as blank
false substrate
49
non nucleoside rti's block active site on blank
reverse transcriptase
50
problems with some rti's
neuropathy, myalgia, joint pain, fever, anemia, pancreatitis
51
protease inhibitors mimic blank components to block protease function
viral
52
blank agents are currently on the market or in development
-avir
53
protease inhibitor problems
lipodystrophy, diarrhea, headache,fatigue
54
atrophy of fat in libs and increased fat in abdomen
lipodystrophy
55
current strategy for HIV combat
HAART
56
HIV treatment uses two blank and 1 blank
rti's, protease inhibitor
57
fungal infections vocab
mycosis
58
fungal infections are usually blank or blank
superficial, local
59
fungal infections that are systemic can be serious in blank host
immunocompromised
60
common antifungal drug
imadazole
61
imadazoles inhibit enzymes that synthesize blank
membrane components
62
local imadazoles examples
bcm
63
systemic imadazoles examples
fik
64
antifungals generally impair blank integrity or blank of fungal cells
membrane integrity, biochemistry
65
gi problems are common and headaches from blank
systemic antifungals
66
topical/local antifungals are generally blank
safe
