Most gram positive/some gram negative
What is MOA:
Which Organisms does it affect:

Augmentin
Bacteriacidal
What is MOA:
Which Organisms does it affect:

Cephalosporins
B-Lactamase
less resistant than PCN
Which Organisms does it affect:

1st Generation Cephalosporins
Many Gram Positive
some Gram Negative
Which Organisms does it affect:

2nd Generation Cephalosporins
Even number Gram Positive and Gram Negative
Which Organisms does it affect:

3rd Generation Cephalosporins
Some Gram positive
Many Gram Negative
What is important about

Monobactams and Carbpenems
they are very specialized with lots of side effects
Which 3 Aminoglycosides should we know?

Do they affect Gram Negative or Positive?

MOA:
Gentamycin
Streptomycin
Tobramycin

EXCLUSIVELY Gram Negative
Bactericidal
Which 3 Tetracyclines should we know?

Do they affect Gram Negative or Positive?

MOA:
Doxycycline
Mnocycline
Tetracycline

Even Gram + and Gram -

Bacteriostatic by disrupting protein in the RNA translation
Which 3 Macrolides should we know?

Do they affect Gram Negative or Positive?

MOA:
Erythromycin
Clarithromycin
Azithromycin

Gram+ and Gram -
Bactericidal and Bacteriostatic
What is the difference between bactericidal and bacteriostatic?
Bacteriostatic freezes bacteria in time and then body has to kill off remainder of bacteria. Do not use if patient is immunocompromised
which antibiotic disrupts cell reproduction?
Sulfa - oldest antibiotic
What is MOA:
Which Organisms does it affect:

Sulfa
Bacteriostatic - interferes with PABA and folic acid synthesis for cell division

Some gram + and some Gram -
NO ANEROBES

LOTS OF RESISTANCE
Which 3 Floroquinolones should we know?
What is MOA:
Which Organisms does it affect:
How does resistance occur:
Cipro
Levaquin
ofloxacin

Bactericidal - DNA replication inhibitors
Gram + and Gram -

Resistance occurs by mutation
What is MOA:
Which Organisms does it affect:

Vancomycin
Tricyclic glycopeptide
Disrupt cell wall formation at the peptidoglycan strand formation

Bactericidal - gram + (aerobic and anerobic organisms)
What is MOA:
Which Organisms does it affect:

Nitrofurantoin
Interferes with cell wall formation
Bacteriostatic

broad spectrum with low resistance
What is MOA:
Which Organisms does it affect:

Metronidazole
MOA not fully known
Alters the DNA to prevent replication

Works on C. Diff, anaerobes, parasites
What is most common parasite in world
Malaria
What is most common parasite in US
Trich
2nd most common parasite infection
Protozoas- Giardia and Cryptosporidium
3 ways antiparasitics work
poison
starve
paralyze
What makes a virus different?
only 1 strand of RNA
invade every known cell type
not alive
What is similar about a virus and a parasite?
they rely on the host cell for protein synthesis and replication.
Influenza treatment medications: (4)
Amantidine
Rimantidine
Tamiflu
Relenza
How does amantidine and Rimantidine work?

**(Not really sure on this one)
prevent virus from binding to cell so it can't transfer its RNA for replication

Virostatic
How do Tamiflu and Relenza work?
Neuramidase inhibitors

break the bond holding virus to host cell
Virostatic
how do retrovirals work?
replicates backwards RNA to DNA (needs enzyme to do this – reverse transcriptase)
