|
|
The cephalosporins that only cover gram +; tx for surgery prophylaxis and MSSE/MSSA
|
Cefazolin (IV)
Cephalexin (PO) |
|
Only cephalosporin generation w/ anaerobic activity
|
2nd gen: cefotetan, cefoxitin
IV only- surgical pro; (+/-) |
|
Sludging of the gall bladder
|
ceftriaxone
(+/-) |
|
Pseudomonal coverage, less effective, more broad - 3rd gen

|
Ceftepime IV
(+/-) + pseudomonas |
|
used to tx enterococcus and lysteria by blocking glycosidic bonds and peptide bonds
|
Vancomycin
|
|
Narrow therapeutic index- must monitor trough
|
Vancomycin
|
|
Ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity = red man syndrome
|
Vancomycin
|
|
tx: C difficile
|
Vancomycin (PO)
only pathogen that you tx w/ PO vanco |
|
pt allergic to penicillin needs to tx her staph infections, what can she use?
|
Vancomycin
no risk of cross-reactivity |
|
Even though it covers gram positives, never ever use for HAP
|
Daptomycin
Pulmonary surfactant disables it |
|
Can tx VRE enterococcus, listeria by irreversibly inserting itself into the cell wall
|
Daptomycin
as opposed to vanco who can only tx non vre enterococcus |
|
fun Mnemonic : buy AT 30S, CCELL at 50S
|
AT: Aminoglycosides and tetracyclines (30S )
CCELL: Chlormaphenicol, clindamycin, erythromycin, linomycin and linizid (at 50S) |
|
Inhibits peptide bond formation and translocation; resistance= alternated target site and efflux pump.
|
Macrolides
|
|
DOC for chlamydia
|
Azithromycin
IV, PO (gram + & some gram -) |
|
Used to tx H. pylori; PO only
|
Clarithromycin
(gram + & some gram -) |
|
Able to bind 2 spots on the ribosomes; domains II and V
|
Ketolidise (telithromycin)
|
|
SE: diarrhea, visual changes; only indication is CAP
|
Telithromycin
|
|
similar coverage to macrolides w/ less resistance + SE: liver failure
|
Telithromycin
|
|
Highest risk for inducing C diff diarrhea
|
Clindamycin
|
|
good for anaerobes above the waste, identically similar to Macrolides MOA
|
Clindamycin
differ: covers only + and anaerobes--> IV and PO. NO HA-MRSA, only CA-staph |
|
Covers +, -, (including MRSA) and VRE and affects an earlier stage of synthesis (initiation)
|
linezolid
IV, PO |
|
SE: BMS, Serotinin syndrome

Tetracyclines
IV, PO |
|
SE: tooth discoloration, failure to grow, photosensitivity
|
Tetracyclines
d/t chelation w/ di and tri cations |
|
PO, shorting acting, if left in the medicine cabinet past its expiration date it will decompose into a toxic product
|
Tetracycline
|
|
2nd line for CAP, COPD

|
Glycylcyclines
|
|
inhibits activity of peptidyltransferase (50S)
|
Chloramphenicol
gray baby- glucuronidation |
|
Causes misreading of codons and blocks translocation. 30S
|
aminoglycosides
|
|
Enters the cell via active transport which allows resistance to develop how?
|
Aminoglycosides
by decreasing the permeability, the aminoglycosides cannot enter the cell |
|
Narrow therapeutic Index- peaks and trough monitoring is recommended.
|
Aminoglycosides (IV)
only works on aerobes |
|
In aminoglycosides: peak shows _____ and trough shows ______
|
peak- efficacy
trough- toxicity |
|
1) tx: serratia marcescens
2) tx:Pseudomonas aeruginosa and acinetobacter 3) tx: resistant strains |
1) Gentamycin
2) Tobramycin 3) Amikacin |
