Q

characteristics of the drug prevent reaching the target site or the drug is inactivated

A

intrinsic

17
Q

resistance which develops horizontally or vertically

A

aquired

18
Q

3 mechanisms of resistance

A

drug cannot reach target, drug is inactivated, target site is altered

19
Q

what does clavulanic acid do?

A

prevents destruction of beta lactase, sometimes given with penicillins

20
Q

cephalosporin more helpful for what two things?

A

gram negative and MSSA

21
Q

alterations in membrane permeability or efflux

A

drug cannot reach target site

22
Q

target site is altered

A

MRSA and PRSP

23
Q

drug is inactivated
