Micro pharma Flashcards
Bacteriocidal drugs?
B-lactams (time-dependent) Aminoglycosides Metronidazole (concentration-dependent) Quinolones (concentration-dependent) Vancomycin (concentration-dependent)
BAM QV
MIC?
Lowest concentration of antimicrobial at which an organisms growth is inhibited (bacterioSTASIS)
-cidal vs. -static drugs
Cell-wall acting are generally bacteriocidal - lots of exception, limits
Bacteriostatic drugs?
Clindamycin, Macrolides, Tetracycline
Time- vs concentration-dependent drugs
All bacterioCIDAL
Concentration: want peak concentration or AUC
Time: Duration that serum concentration > MIC (Beta lactams)
Possible mechanisms of PAE
Drug stays bound at site
Irreversible binding - bacteria needs to synth new enzymes
Bacteria slow to recover
Beta Lactams
Penicillin; ampicilin (+/- sulbactam); amoxicillin (+/- clavulanate); nafcillin (beta-lactamase resistant); piperacillin (+/- tazobactam - piper = antipseudamonal)
Gram +; some -; enterobacteria w/o betalactamases
Cephalosporins
1st gen: Cefazolin: + 2nd gen: Cefotetan: +/- 3rd gen: Ceftriaxone: +/-- 4th gen: Cefepime: C. diff; pseudomonas 5th gen: Cefaroline: MRSA
disulfiram interaction; bleeding risk with 2; beta-lactamases resist 1&2
Glycopeptides
Vancomycin - target D-ala/D-ala
G+ ; enterococcus including MRSA, Cdiff
VRSA exists
Red man syndrome; oto/nephro toxicity (monitor)
