2)Mechanism of action 3)Pharmacokinetics 4)Distribution (penetration of target tissue) 5)Drug interactions 6)Resistance 7)Toxicity and adverse effects |
|
Define MIC
|
MIC (Minimum inhibitory concentration)- lowest concentration of the drug that inhibits growth after 18-24 hrs of incubation in vitro
|
|
Define MBC
|
MBC (Minimum bactericidal concentration)- lowest concentration of the drug at which 99.9% of a culture is killed after 18-24 hrs incubation in vitro
|
|
Define PAE
|
PAE (post-antibacterial effect)- When suppression of bacterial growth continues after the antibiotic concentration falls below the bacterial MIC
|
|
Define Time-dependent killing
|
Bactericidal effects only occur during the time when the antibiotic is maintained above the MIC
|
|
