Penicillin Tx's?
|
- Streptococcal infections (GAS – pharyngitis, cellulites; Strep pneumoniae – pneumonia, meningitis; Enterococcus faecalis – used with aminoglycoside)
- Proven non penicillinase-producing Staph aureus infections - Many anaerobes other than Bacteroides fragilis e.g., actinomycosis, clostridia - Neisseria meningitides - Treponemes (syphilis) |
|
Ampicillin, Amoxicillin Tx's?
|
“community acquired infections” involving respiratory tract, such as: a) otitis media, sinusitis; b) bronchitis, pneumonia
"HELPS" = H.flu, E.coli, Listeria, Proteus, Salmonella, enterococci |
|
Extended Spectrum Names/Tx's?
|
Ticarcillin, Carbenicillin, Piperacillin
Pseudomonas and Gram-Negatives (susceptible to penicillinase, otherwise use w/ clavulanic acid) |
|
Amp/Amox/Extended-Spectrum all are synergistic with what other class of Abx?
|
Aminoglycosides
Thus, "Amp-Gent", etc. |
|
Amoxicillin/c.a. Tx's?
Ampicillin/sulbactam Tx's? Ticarcillin/clavulanic acid and piperacillin/tazobactam Tx's? |
1. Amoxicillin/c.a. – mainly upper and lower resp. infections (otitis media,
sinusitis, bronchitis) where beta-lactamase producing H. flu or Moraxella are expected. 2. Ampicillin/sulbactam – parenteral therapy for mixed aerobic/anaerobic organism coverage where high-resistance strains (such as Pseudomonas, Enterobacter, etc.) are not suspected. Examples include GI or GU tract surgical infections and pneumonias (especially aspiration). 3. Ticarcillin/clavulanic acid and piperacillin/tazobactam – very broad spectrum activity allows them to be “ok” therapy for a wide variety of infections but usually a narrower spectrum agent may be pre- ferable and have greater activity. They are effective against more gram negatives than ampicillin/sulbactam. |

1st Gen Cephalosporins Name/Tx's?
|
Cefazolin,
Cephalexin, Cefadroxil Staph and Strep (Gm+ Cocci), PEcK (Proteus, E.coli, Klebsiella) Surgical Prophylaxis, UTI |
|
2nd Gen Cephalosporins Name/Tx's?

Gm+ Cocci, HEN PEcKS (H.flu, Enterobacter aerogenes, Neisseria spp, Proteus, E.coli, Kleb pneum, Serratia) |
|
3rd Gen Cephalosporins Name/Tx's?
What is special about Ceftriaxone? |
Cefotaxime, Cefoperazone, Ceftriaxone, Ceftazidime
"Hospital Acquired" Gm- CeftriaXone&CefotaXime = Neisseria meningitis (+pneum from neisseria) Ceftazidime&Cefoperazone = ALSO GOOD FOR PSEUDOMONAS (but combine with aminoglycoside) Ceftriaxone = LONG HALF-LIFE |
|
4th Gen Cephalosporins Name/Tx's?

|
|
Aztreonam, Imipenem, Meropenem, Ertepenem, Doripenem Tx's?
