Mechanism of action Flashcards
inhibition of cell wall synthesis
Penicillins Beta-lactamase inhibitors cephalosporins carbapenems monobactams Glycopeptides Phosphonic acid Pseudomonic acid
inhibition of protein synthesis (30S subunit)
Aminoglycosides
tetracyclines
inhibition of protein synthesis (50S subunit)
