26
Q

Name the one abx whose MOA works on Folic Acid Metabolism.

A

-Trimethoprim Sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim): Gram Neg and MRSA

27
Q

Selective toxicity: bacteria must synthesize folate intracellularly while mammalian cells can take up folate from the environment. Which abx class acts on folate metabolism?

A

Trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim)

28
Q

Selective toxicity: certain abx can work on protein synthesis, specifically ribosomes, because humans have 40s/60s ribosomes whereas bacteria have 30s/50s ribosomes. What 4 abx work on protein synthesis inhibition?
