Q

Possible mechanisms of PAE

A

Drug stays bound at site
Irreversible binding - bacteria needs to synth new enzymes
Bacteria slow to recover

16
Q

Risk of causing C. diff?

A

Tetracyclines

Clindamycin

17
Q

Poor PO absorption?

A

Vancomycin (use PO for C.diff)

Aminoglycosides (gentamicin + tobramycin)

18
Q

Don’t give to patient with arrhythmia?

A

Quinolones can prolong QT (Ciprofloacin, levofloacin)

19
Q

Tetracyclines?

A

Tetracycline, doxycycline

Gram +; lyme disease

Inhibit protein synthesis by blocking tRBA at 30s subunit; Bacteriostatic
Bound by cations (don’t take with milk)

20
Q

Aminoglycosides

A

Gentamicin + tobramycin

Aerobic Gram -

MOA: at 30s; possible block formation, miscode, block translocation?

Use with beta lactam to widen spectrum
Transport is O2 dependent!!
NO oral absorption
Possible irreversible ototox; nephrotox; interact with NMB

21
Q

Macrolides

A

Azithromycin

Inhibits peptide bond formation (peptidyltransferase) – 50s subunit!

G+ - pneumo, strept, staph, MYCO, legionella, chlamydia, H. influ

Good tissue penetration

22
Q

Clindamycin

A

Inhibit peptide bond formation (peptidyltransferase) –50s Subunit

ANAEROBES!

23
Q

Oxazolidinones

A

Linezolid

50s, /23s rRNA; prevents complex from forming

**MRSA, Gr +, staph, strept, entero, ANAEROBIC COCCI, rods: nocardia, listeria, corynebacterae

SSRI interaction! blood anemias, optic/peripheral neuropathy

24
Q

Quinolones

A

Cipro, Levofloxacin

GRAM - ; some Gram +, myco, legionella

Block DNA synth - inhibition of topoisomerases

EMPIRIC UTI; bact diarrhea, CAP, STI, cellulitis

**QT prolongation! –cidal

25
Q

Sulfonamides

A

Trimethoprim/sulfa

Antimetabolic - uses all PABA so bacteria can’t generate folate

P jiroveci, shigella, salmonella, UTI, prostatiitis, MRSA, H flu, klebsiella, H. flu

Prostatic fluid! anemias, photosensitivity, vasculitis

26
Q

Metronidazole

A

Targets ANAEROBES - first line for C diff
disulfram interaction
Reactive to N anion –> target DNA
teratogen in 3rd trimester
