Term
Azithromycin
Definition

Macrolide accumulates in Gram (+) bacteria and binds 50s subunit (esp in Macrophages)

-especially effective against Listeria

Tx: H. flu, Legionella, Chlamydia, Gonorrheae, Mycoplasm

*Interact w/ Magnesium/Aluminum

Term
Clarithromycin
Definition

Macrolide, accumulates in G+ bacteria and binds 50s subunit (inhibits translocation)

Tx: Mycobacterium avium (AIDS)

*Potent inhibitors of P450 (CYP3A4)

*Can increase serum theophylline levels & rifampin/rifabutin can lowe clarithromycin levels

Term
Erytrhomycin
Definition

Macrolide, binds 50s subunit inhibits translocation

-stimulates GI motility

Tx: mycoplasma pneumonia, legionella

*Potent inhibitors of P450 (CYP3A4)

*Can prolong QT interval, can cause cholestatic jaundice

Term
Doxycycline
Definition

Tetracycline, binds 30s (blocks binding of aa tRNA)

-pumped into bacteria

Tx: Rickettsia, Cholera, Spirochetes (lyme/syphilis)

*Can bind bone (bad for kids/nursing)

resistance caused by efflux pump

Can get photosensitivity

Term
Chloramphenicol
Definition

Binds to 50s, blocks peptide bond formation

-Good CNS drug (use for abcesses, meningitis, typhoid fever, conjunctivitis)

resistance: plasmid that acetylates drug (no longer binds)

*Aplastic Anemia, Gray baby syndrome

Antagonist of Erithromycin and Clindamycin

Term
Clindamycin
Definition

Binds 50s subunits, inhibits translocation (passively enters bacteria)

-Used for anaerobic infections

*Potentiates NM blockers, antagonizes Chloramphenicol/Macrolides

Term
Gentamycin
Definition

Aminoglycoside (only effective against Aerobic, porin pump needs ATP + O2)

Tx: Gram- aerobic (Pseudomonas, Enterobacter, Proteus, Klebsiella)

**Ototoxicity and Nephrotoxicity (auditory damage to fetus), NM blockade

Term
Tobramycin
Definition

Aminoglycoside (only effective against Aerobic, porin pump needs ATP + O2)

Tx: Gram- aerobic (Pseudomonas, Enterobacter, Proteus, Klebsiella)

**Ototoxicity and Nephrotoxicity (auditory damage to fetus), NM blockade

Term
Streptomycin
Definition

Aminoglycoside (only effective against Aerobic, porin pump needs ATP + O2)

Tx: Gram + aerobic (S. viridans, S. agalactiae, Enterocccus)

**Ototoxicity and Nephrotoxicity (auditory damage to fetus), NM blockade

Term
Neomycin
Definition

Aminoglycoside (only effective against Aerobic, porin pump needs ATP + O2)

Tx: Gram + aerobic (S. viridans, S. agalactiae, Enterocccus)

**Ototoxicity and Nephrotoxicity (auditory damage to fetus), NM blockade
