generally well-tolearted
concerns about hypersensitivity (immunological response) & anyphalactic rxns (significant bronchioconstriction) |
|
Name some common 3rd generation cephalosporins

|
what is the MOA of carbapenems?
|
- bactericidal
- bind to specific penicillin binding proteins |
|
carbapenems indications:
|
- bactericidal
- broad spectrum: gram pos & neg and anerobes (esp in gut) |
|
Name some drugs that are carbapenems:
|
- imipenem (w/cilastatin)
- meropenem |
|
imipenem is a _______
|
carbapenem with activity against P. aurougenosa
|
|
meropenem is a ______
|
carbapenem
|
|
common AE of carbapenems:
|
generally-well tolerated
- concerns about hypersensitivity and anaphylactic rxns (usually after 2nd dose) - maculopapular |
|
the MOA of Glycopeptides:
|
- bactericidal
- not well-understood but binds to walls blocking glycopeptide polymerization by a different mech than beta lactams |
|
Indications for glycopeptides:
|
- gram Positive organisms
- Aneaerobes |
|
Name some glycopeptide drugs:
|
- vancomycin
|
|
common AE of glycopeptides:
|
- ototoxicity
- nephrotoxicity -hypersensitivity rxns |
|
vancomycin is a __________
|
glycopeptide
|
|
vancomycin is given orally for 1 reason:
|
- GI Problem --clostridium difficile - lives in the GI, may occcur during superinfection
pseudomembranous colitis = disease --GI swells, looks puffy, if left untreated --> explodes |
|
MOA of lincomycins
|
- bateriostatic or batericidal depending on concentration and specific bacteria
- Binds to 50s ribosomal subunit inhibiting translation |
|
Indications of Lincomycins:
|
> gram pos organisms
>Anaerobes |
|
State some lincomycin drugs:
|
- clindamycin (PO, IV, vagina, topically)
- lincomycin |
|
common AE of lincomycins:
|
pseudomembranous colitis by C. difficile
|
|
MOA of monobactams
|
- bactericidal
- binds to penicillin binding proteins (like beta lactans) |
|
Monobactams indications:
|
- narrow spectrum of activity
- Gram neg bacteria: (*hemophilus, enterobacteriacea, P. aeruginosa) |
|
Name some monobactam drugs:
|
aztreonam
|
|
common AE of monobactams
