common penicillin features?
low degree toxicity to pt
high incidence of allergic reaction
short duration (rapid excretion in urine)
incomplete absorption from GI
Time-dependent killing so needs frequent doses
what does the renal secretion of penicillins mean?
be cautious with pts that have compromised kidney function (can lead to seiqures and platelet aggregation)
how do you extend the half life of pen g?

how given?
add procaine or benzathine to from insoluble salts. antibiotic is slowly hydrolyed from salt

IM
what is the main exs of penicillinase resistant pens?

what spectrum?
cloxacillin and dicloxacillin

narrow
what are the extended release penicillins?
ampicillin (prototype) and amoxicillin (better absorbed)
what are the broad spectrum pens?

how taken?
piperacillin and mezlocillin.

not orally.
what are the initial drugs of choise with orofacial infections for non allergic pts?
amoxicillin and penicillin V
what are the noteworthy side effects of penicillins?
can be antagonized by other bacteriostatic antibiotics
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) and probenecid can increase their half life (decrease excretion)
which penicillin does not need an initial loading dose?
amoxicillin.
when type of allergic penicillin reaction contra-indicates cephalosporins?
immediate reaction
what are the first gen cephalosporins?

which has a longer half life?
cephalexin and cefazolin (longer half life)
how administer cefazolin? cephalexin?
parenteral

orally
how do second generation cephalosporins differ from 1st?
second are more stable against beta lactamases from G-bacteria and anaerobes.
2nd gen cephalosporins are used for?
respiratory infections
what is unique about 3rd gen cephalosporins?

used for?
resistant to most bacterial beta lactamases and used for serious gram - infections
4th gen cephalosporins differ by?

ex?
more resistant even than 3rd to beta lactamases and more active against gram +

cefepime
how administer carbapenems?
ex?
parenteral

imipenem with cilastatin combo
why is cilastatin given with imipenem?
inhibits renal imipenem metabolism and prevents renal toxicity
what is the cross-allergic reaction rate btwn pens and cephalosporins?
5-10%
what is the most important glycopeptide antibiotic?

spectrum?
vancomycin

narrow
what is vancomycin used for?

what are its adverse reactions?
drug of choise for MRSA

ototoxicity, skin rash, "red man" (redneck) syndrome
what types of drugs inhibit bacterial protein synthesis?
1. macrolides
2. lincosamides
3. tetracyclines
4.aminoglycosides
5.chloramphenicol
what are the macrolides?
erythromycin
clarithromycin
azithromycin
which types bind 50s ribosymes to inhibit protein sythesis?
macrolides, lincomycin, clindamycin and chlorophenicol.
which types bind the 30s subunit?
tetracyclines and aminoglycosides
what is the absorption life for erythromycin?

how changed?
not acid stable, so not completely absorbed.

make into salt (stearage, ethyl succinate
what are the adverse effects of erythromycin?
Gi symptoms
reversible liver injury
Torsades de points
How does clarithromycin differ from erythromycin?
acid stable, better absorption, and increased half life
what are the problems with clarithromycin?
inhibits metabolism of other drugs
what is unique about azithromycin?
notrogen atom in macrolide ring
what are the tissue: plasma ratios for azithromycin in:
lung and tonsils?
cervix?
skin?
100

70

35
drug interactions and metabolism of azithromycin?
not in liver, and rare interactions b/c of altered metabolism
what was one of the first macrolides on the market?
troleandomycin
what are macrolides good for as denists?
good for acute orofacial infections, (beta lactam allergic pts)
clarith, and azith are for endocarditis
absorption of the macrolides?
eryth: coat it to prevent destruction
Azith: bile!!!!!!!
max dose of macrolides?
4g/day or 1.5g/day if renally impared
if macrolides are co-administered with fluoroquinolones, pimozide or cisapride?
get torsades de pointe
