True/False PQ Flashcards
It is inevitable to remember the phamacodynamic properties of certain
antimicrobilas to be able to reduce the spreading of resistance. Based on this
knowledge macrolide antibiotics are adviced to use in high dosages for short period of time
F
Tulathromycin can reach e!ective concentration in lung and this concentration persist in lung until one week.
T
Enrofloxacin is excellent in the treatment of pneumonia caused by gram negative
fastidious pathogens in swine and it is outstanding activity against Mycoplasma
species
T
Amoxicillin is authorized only for intramuscular administration in both swine and cattle.
F
As of February 2022, the prophylactic use of antimicrobials will be limited to the
individual treatment of animals.
F
The most common form of antibiotics used by veterinarians is a solution and premix.
T
The spread of antimicrobial resistance can be slowed down?
T
From 2022, when antibiotics are added to feed, the duration of prophylactic
treatment must not exceed two weeks.
F
The efficacy of oral chlortetracycline against mycoplasmas in poultry species is
uncertain due to poor absorption
T
In poultry species, tilmicosin may be most e!ective in treating diseases caused by
Spirochaeta spp.
F
Oral sulfonamide-trimetroprim combinations are particularly e!ective against mycoplasmas in poultry species.
F
The PK/PD analysis (AUC/MIC modell) helps estimate the degree of spreading
antimicrobial resistance. The higher the ratio the higher the chance is for selection of mutant bacteria resistant to the given antimicrobial agent.
F
Acquired resistance to fluoroquinolones in pathogenic bacteria develops gradually
and in several stages only a”er several weeks of treatment.
F
There is a UTI infection in a German shepherd dog. From the urine sample E. coli could be cultured, which has 32 µg/ml MIC value to amoxicillin. Regarding to the
table, the substance will be effective during the treatment.
T
There is a UTI infection in a shih-tzu dog. From the urine sample MRSA could be
cultured, which has 64 µg/ml MIC value to amikacin. Regarding to the table and
PK/PD analysis, the substance will NOT be effective during the treatment.
