Kumar's Final Review - Anti-Microbials - AH Flashcards
All the highlighted material from Kumar's review of Anti-microbials and nothing else.
Name the 5 major categories of Antimicrobials based on MOA
- Folic Acid synthesis inhibitors, 2. Beta-lactam antibiotics, 3. Protein Synthesis inhibitors (30s/50s) 4. Nucleic acid synthesis inhibitors, 5. Misc. (cell wall, nucleic acid synthesis 20s, cell membrane)
Sulfonamides MOA?
PABA analoge: Inhibit folic acid synthesis by irreversibly blocking dihydroperoic acid
Metabolism for Sulfonamides?
metabolized in liver (also in lungs). Acetylation = major pathway (poor in dogs)
*What happens as a result of poor acetylation of sulfunamides in dogs?
*Urine precipitates = crystalluria (Tx by alkalizing the urine)
Which class of sulfonamides exerts local action on the GIT?
Enteric sulfonamides (not absorbed in the GIT)
What are some examples of enteric sulfonamides and what are they used for?
Sulfasalazine – colitis in dogs. Sulfaquinoxaline – coccidiosis in chickens. Sulfacetamide – eye (neutral pH)
What are the topical sulfonamides?
Silver sulfadiazine and Mafenide
Sulfonamide breed sensitivities ?
Dobermans → polyarthritis, fever, cutaneous eruptions, hepatitis. Duck&Dog → hypoglycemia (decreased thyroid hormone production)
What are potentiated sulfonamides?
Combination of sulfonamide and diaminopyrimidine
What is the spectrum for potentiated sulfonamides?
Broad spectrum, bacteriaCIDAL – synergisism between sulfonamides and diaminopyrimidine
Prep of potentiated sulfonamides has what ratio?
Sulfamethoxazole + Trimethoprim (5:1)
Side effect of potentiated sulfonamides in dogs?
Reversible hypothyroidism
Sulfonamide Immunological SE?
Heptaic necrosis, Keratoconjumctivitis Sicca
List 3 Diaminopyrimidines and how they are used
Primethamine – protozoa. Trimethoprim – used with sulfonamides (5 sulfa:1 trimeth). Ormethoprim – ruminants
Major categories of Beta-lactam antibiotics?
Penicillin, Chephalosporin, Carbapenems, Monobactam
Beta-lactam MOA?
Inhibits cell wall synthesis via penicillin binding protein interference – bactericidal action
What are the natural Penicillins?
Penicillin V/G
How is Penicillin V administered?
Oral (acid stable)
Penicillin G drugs
Benzathine and Procaine
How is procaine and procaine formulations administered?
Only by parenteral route, no IV (procaine → IM)
What is the admin route that prolongs Benzathine action?
Reposatory prep. Lasts for 7days
SE of Procaine?
Anaphylaxis and CNS in guinea pigs and chinchillas. Excitement in horses.
List the Semi-Synthetic Penicillins with good oral absorption
Oxacillin Cloxacillin and DicIoxacillin (all are acid stable)
List the semi-synthetic B-lactamase sensitive Penicillins
Amoxicillin and Ampicillin
Which B-lactamase sensitive drug is more orally bio-available?
Amoxicillin
Which B-lactamase sensitive drug is a prodrug?
Ampicillin
<p>Spectrum of action for extended spectrum penicillins?</p>
<p>Anti-pseudomonal </p>
How are extended spectrum penicillins administered?
Parenterally w/ B-lactamase inhibitors
List 5 ext. spec. penicillins
Azlocillin, Carbenicillin, Mezlocillin, Ticarcillin, Piperacillin
List the beta-lactamase inhibitors
Clavulanic acid, Sulbactam
Beta-lactamase inhibitor MOA?
Competative inhibitor of B-lactamase binding sites.
Where do cephalosporins accumulate?
in the extracellular fluid
What 1st generation cephalosporin is administered via parenteral route to small animals?
Cefazolin
Which Cephalosporin has the broadest spectrum of action, is most potent and is stable against B-lactamase?
Cefeprim
Other B-lactams that are not susceptible to B-lactamase enzyme degredation?
Carbapenems and Monobactams
What is the spectrum of Carbapenems?
Broad
List the 2 Carbapenems
Imipenem and Meropenem
