Penicillin
|
G = IV form; V = oral form
Prototype Beta-lactam antibiotics 1. Bind penicillin-binding proteins 2. Block transpeptidase cross-linking of peptidoglycan (block Cell wall synthesis) 3. Activate autolytic enzymes G+, syphilis Bactericidal for g+ cocci, g+ rods, g- cocci and spirochetes Toxi: Hypersensitivity reactions, hemolytic anemia Res: beta lactamases cleave beta-lactam ring |
|
penicillinase-resistent penicillins
