Fluorquinolones
Penicillin
Aminoglycosides
Cephalosporins
Metronidazole
Penicillin (prototype Beta-lactam)
MOA:
1. binds penicillin-binding protein
2. blocks transpeptidase cross-linking of cell wall
3. activates autolytic enzymes
bactericidal for gram + c/r, and gram - c, and spirochetes
SE: hypersensitivity reactions, hemolytic anemia
Methicillin, Nafcillin, Dixloxacillin (penicillinase resistant penicillins)
MOA: same as penicillin, narrower spectrum
resistance to beta lactamase is due to the bulkier R group

USE: staph aureus
TOX: hypersensitivity reactions,
methicillin-insterstitial nephritis.
ampicillin, amoxicillin (aminopenicillins)
MOA: same as penicillin. wider spectrum. combine with clavulanic acid to inhibit penicillinase and enhance the spectrum.
amOxicillin has better Oral bioavailability.

USE: gram + bact and gram - rods.
TOX: pseudomembranous colitis, hypersensitivity. ampicillin rash!
Ampicillin and Amoxicillin HELPS
H flu
E coli
Listeria monocytogenes
Proteus mirabilis
Samonella
enterococci.
Ticarcillin, Carbenicillin, Pipercillin
antipseudomonals.
TCP=Takes Care Pseudomonas

use with clavulanic acid
tox: hs reactions.
Cephalosporins mechanism of action and tox
Beta-lactam drugs that inhibit cell wall synthesis but are less susceptible to penicillinases. Bacteriocidal.
hs reactions
cross-hs reactions with penicillins
increase nephrotox of aminoglycosides
diulfram-like reaction with EtOH
only with methylthiotetrazole group
1st generation cephalosporins
cefazolin
cephalexin
gram + cocci, Proteus, E coli, Klebsiella

"PEcK"

3rd generation Cephalosporins
Cefriaxone
cefotaxime
ceftazidime
serious gram - infections resistant to other beta-lactams.
meningitis
ceftriaxone for gonorrhea
ceftazidime for pseudomonas
4th generation cephaosporins
cefepime
increased activity against pseudomonas and gram + organisms
Aztreonam
monobactam resistant to B-lactamases.
binds to PBP3 to inhibit cell wall synthsis.
synergistic with aminoglycosides
gram negative rods only
used for those with aminoglycoside intolerance due to renal insufficiency.
imipenem with cilastatin
meropenem
imipenem is a broad spectrum beta-lactamase resistant carbapenem. administered with cilastatin to inhibit the renal dihydropeptidase I which inactivates imipenem.
meropenem is resistant to that on its own. and has a reduced risk of seizures
Drug of choice for Enterobacter.

can cause GI distress, rash, and sz at high plasma levels.
Vancomycin
MOA
USE
inhibits cell wall mucopeptide formation by binding D-ala D-ala portion of cell wall precursors.
bacteriocidal
used for serious gram positive multidrug resistant organisms
S aureus
Clostridium difficile
Vancomycin
resistance mechanism
tox
resistance is plasmid mediated. it changes from D-ala D-ala to D-ala D-lac.
Nephrotoxic, Ototoxic, anThromboplebitis

Red Man Syndrome (prevent with antihistamines and slow infusion)
30S protein synthesis inhibitors
Aminoglycosides--bactericidal
streptomycin, gentamicin,
tobramycin, amikacin.
Tetracyclins--bacteristatic
block A site binding

50S protein synthesis inhibitors
Clindomycin, Chloramphenicol (static)
Erythromycin (static)
Lincomycin (static)
Linezolid (variable)
Chloramphenicol blocks peptidyl transfer

linezolid blocks 50S from initiator tRNA
aminoglycosides
(gentamicin, neomycin, amikacin, tobramycin, streptomycin)
bactericidal.
