Bacteriacidal
|
|

2nd Generation Cephalosporins |
Even number Gram Positive and Gram Negative
|
|
Which Organisms does it affect:
3rd Generation Cephalosporins |

|
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)
|
