What is drug class of vancomycin
glycopeptide antibiotic
Vancomycin is NARROW spectrum BACTERICIDAL antibiotic, with activity ONLY against
Gram + organism
Vancomycin has good activty against
S. Aurues, and S. edpidermidis, both MRSA and MRSE, and other staph and strep, and enterococcu
Does vancomycin have good activyt against Gram+ ANAEROBES
yes, including glostridum
Does Vanco have any activity against Gram- bacteria, and why
NO, b/c the large molecular weight prevent it from penetrating the outer membrane
What is the Drug of choice for MRSA and MRSE
Vancomycin
MOA of Vancomycin
inhibits CELL WALL synsthsis by high affinity binding to the cell wall precursos D-alanyl-Dalaine
Does the MOA of vancomycin involve PBP
NO--why its effective against MRSA and MRSE
Vancomycin is bactericidal BUT not as rapid as B-lactam, AKA
slowly cidal
What is MAJOR mechanism of resistance of Vacomycin
change of D-alayl-D-alanine to
D-alanyl D-LACTE
Change of D-alanyl-D-alanine to D-alaynl-D-LACTATE, results in
prevening the binding of vanco, and cell wall systhesis can continue
Change id D-alaynl-Dlactate is MOST common in
ENTEROCOCCI
VRE--Vancomycin-RESISTANT enterocci, paricullar
VREF--entecococcu faecium
What is less common mechanism of resistance of vanco
plasmid mediated mechanisms
What is oral absorption of vanco
POOR--must be aministered IV
When can oral routes be used for Vancomycin
to treat Clostrium Difficule, b/c infectio is localized in the colonic mucosa
Can Vancomycin be adminstered IM, like aminoglycosides
NO---can cause muscle necorsis
What is volume of distrubtion of Vancomycin
Well distruction
What is elimination of Vacomycin
70% renally, the remainer unknown
What is 1/2 of Vancomycin
4-6 hrs
What are the 3 MAJOR adverse effect of Vancomycin
Red man syndrome
Nephrotoxicity
Phelbitits
What is Red man syndrome or Red neck syndrome (SIGNS)
prutis, flushing of face, neck and upper extremeties, rash, hypotension and tachcardia
Red man syndrome occurs 10-20 minutes after start of infusion,and mediated by what
histamine release
Is Red man syndrome a TRUE hypersenstiivty
NO--histmaine relaste
How can Red Man syndrome be managed
slowing infusion rate, and pre-adminstering antihistamines
Nephrotoxicity is NOT as common b/c Vancomycin today has less impurites, however increased risk when
given with aminoglycoside
>4gram/day
Ototoxicity is rare with vacomycin,, is phelbits and pain comon with vanco
YES
What drug class Telavancin
Lipoglycopetide
Telvancin is also bactericidal activity, which is conc. dept or time dept
CONC. dependent
Is Vaco, time dependen or Conc depent
TIME depdendent
What is spectrum of activity of Telavancin
Great against Gram+, including MRSA and VSE (ESPECIALLY VRE)
How is Televancin administered
IV
What is half-life of Telvacin
7-11 hrs once daily dosing
What is MOA of Televacin
Inhibtis Cell wall sysnthesis by interfeing with transglycosides, and transpetidades
2. Distrupts bacteriam membrane fxn
How does Televacin distrupt bacterial membrane fxn
inserting into the membrane and causing depolarization
What are teh MAIN Adverse effects of Televacin
Altered taste (nickel)
Foamy urine
Has Telvacin been FDA approved
NOT YET
Streptogramins antibtiocs consists of what
TWO types
Type A and Type B
Type A Dalfopristin
Type B Quinupristin
Streptograms are membrane of the MLS which is
Macrolide-lincosamide and streogramin group--b/c of similar MOA
Whatis MOA of MLS
act at robsome to inhibt protein syntheis
What was the 1st streogramin antiotics in the US
Synercid (Dalopristin and Quinpristin
The combinatio of quinpritin and daloprsint is fixed ratio, and SEPARATELY they are
bacteriostatic, halting protein syntheis
Togerther combination of quinupristin and dalfopristin, are
BACTERICIDAL, and act synergistically to inhibit protein synstheiss
Synericd is NARROW spectum bactericidal antibiotic only activity against
Gram + organism
Specturm of activity of Synercid
S. Aureus(MRSA) and S. epidermidis, and other stapy and streop, and entercoccos including VREF
MOA of Synercid is Type A or Dalfopristin binds to 50S ribosomal subunits and causes
conformation change ALLOWS Type B to bind to 50S ribosomal subunit
What happens after Type B (Quinupristin binds to 50S ribosomal subinit
inhibits protein synthsis
What is Major mechanism of resistance of Synercid
palsmid mediated
What are the MAJOR adverse effective synercid, and WHY it is NOT used clinically
PHELBITIS (75%), can be SERVERE--thromophebitis
Arthragia/myagia
Elevated heatpic enzyme
How is Phelbitis managed
using a central venous catheter
Arthalgia/myagia can be SEVERE (3-12%), and often requires
analgesics (APAP, NSAIDS and opitates)
Synercid also have many drug interactions becuase it inhibts
CYP3A4 enzymes
What is the only reason Synercid may be used
allergies to B-lactams or resistance
What drug class is Linezolid
oxazolidinone
What is made Linezolid extremely population
ORALLY absrobed
Linezolid is NARROW spectrum agenet, is it bactericidal or basteriostatic
STATIC
Spectrum of activity of Linzezolid
Gram + organisms ONLY

Stapy aureas (MRSA), S. epidermidis, and other stapy, and strepoccis, and enterococcos
What makes Linezolid better Specturm of activity then Synercid
activity against BOTH enterococcus E. ffaecalis and E. faecium
Linezolid inhibits a early step in bacterial protein synthesis by binds to
BOTH 50S and 30S, and prevents formation of 70S ribosome complex
Does Linezolid block elogation or termination
NO
The unique MOA of Linezolid, seems to prevent cross-resistance with other antibiotics
YES
Resistance with Linzelid si unusual, but occurs where
mutation in Domain V of the 50S ribosomal subunit
