cerbapenems
tx: nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, tertogen
aminoglycosides (gentamicin, tobramycin)
tx: skin rash, discoloration of teeth, declined bone growth
doxycyline
Tx: skin rash with hepatitis
macrolides (azithro, erythro)
tx: oragne body fluids, hepatotoxicity
rifampin
tx: rash, damaged cartilage, myalgia
quinolones
tx: megoblastic anemia, leukopenia

metronidazole
for menigitis prophylaxis, mycobacterium tuberculosis
rifampin
m: blocks mRNA synth by inhibiting RNA polymerase
rifampin
m: inhibits DNA gyrase (topoisomerase II)
quinolones
m: blocks folate synth
sulfas
m: forms free radicals by damaging DNA
metronidazole
m: inhibits protein synth. Block initiation of transcription and translation, causing misreading of mRNA
aminoglycosides (gentamicin, tobramycin)
m: inhibits protein synth. Block attachment of tRNA to ribosome
tetracycline
m: inhibits protein synth. Each interferes with distinct part.
streptogramins
m: inhibits protein synth. Prevents continuation of protein synthesis
macrolides, lincosamides
m: inhibits protein synth. Prevents peptide bonds from being formed
chloramphenicol
m: inhibits protein synth. Thought to interfere with initiation
linezolid (an oxazolidinone)
makes PBP2A (mec gene)
MRSA
deactiviated by ampC (chromosomal and inducible)
extended spectrum penicillins, 3rd gen cephalosporins
deactivated by TEM-1 and 2 beta-lactamases, ESBL
1st and 2nd generation cephalosporins
