Cards

Term
where is the resultant distribution of aminoglycosides due to their polarity?
Definition
in water, in edema, in renal cortices, in oto canal
Term
aminoglycosides are bacteriocidal/static?  what do they target?
Definition

cidal

 

gram negs

Term
what is the advantage of extended interval ABs over time-dependent?
Definition
the fewer times the concentration falls below the minimum inhibitory conc, the fewer times the bacteria can repopulate
Term
AMINOglycs MOA?
Definition

gain access by passive diffusion and oxygen dependent transport system.  This excludes gram pos and anaerobes

 

once there they:

-bind at start codon

-block addition at A site

-incorporate the wrong codon

 

***things like divalent cations (Ca2+ and Mg2+ from antacids block 02)

Term
explain synergy with respects to amino glycosides
Definition

adding a cell wall inhibitor (B-lactam) so that the protein synthesis inhibitor can gain access

 

usually for bacterial endocarditis

Term
in the event of a community acquired pseudomona infection, what is the best course of action?
Definition
broad spectrum B-lactam instead of aminoglycoside because it will prob have poor penetration into inflammed tissue
Term
how might aminoglycocides affect the neuromuscular system?
Definition
1.May inhibit prejunctional release of the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine
2.May ¯postjunctional sensitivity to acetylcholine


Respiratory paralysis is the big concern

BEWARE IN PATIENTS WITH MYASTHENIA GRAVIS
Term
should aminoglycides be used during pregnancy or while nursing?
Definition
NO
Term
aminoglycocides against pseudo?
Definition
tobra
Term
why is neomycin not for systemic use?
Definition

because of its high nephrotoxicity

 

however, it's good at killing off gut bugs which produce a lot of ammonia run the risk of causing hepatic encephalopathy

Term
subtype of disease that streptomycin is good for?
Definition
zoophilic diseases like rabbit fever, malta fever, and plauge
Term
streptomycin side effects
Definition
neurotoxicities to vestibular nerves, optic nerves, and peripheral neuritis
Term
group to definately not receive tetracycline or deriviates?
Definition
babies bc if can get into CSF, bone marrow, bone, dentine, enamel, unerupted teeth, can cross placenta, enter breast milk
Term
what impairs tetracyclines?
Definition

di and trivalent cations (antacids), food, dairy, alkaline pH

 

and this is bad bc they wont be changed and those that stay in the gut can modify the local flora

Term
elimination commonality between doxyclyine, minocycline, and tigecycline
Definition

non are renally excreted therefore renal function does not need to be considered

 

doxy is biliary

mino is hepatic

tige is biliary

Term
tetracycline/tigecycline MOA
Definition

enter through porins, bind @ 30S A site, prevent binding

 

they are good for pretty much anything including caMRSA, but widespread resistance has limited their use

-tigecycline (not oral) has a few added bonuses against bacs which gained resistance to tetra or vanco

Term
species with intrinsic resistance to all tetracyclines?
Definition
proteus and pseudomonas
Term

what are tetracyclines(doxycline) first line for?

 

tigecycline?

Definition

ricketsia, mycoplasma, chlyamidia, acne, spirochetes, caMRSA

 

complicated infections

Term

what is Fanconi Syndrome linked to?

 

what are some other major SEs of tetracyclines/tigecylines?

Definition

outdated tetracyclines

 

phototoxicity, c. diff, photosensitivity

Term

unique adverse effects of:

minocycline

demclocycline

tigecycline

Definition

-vestibular toxicity

-nephrogenic diabetes insipidus; water absorbed improperly especially during SIADH in which it is used for treatment

-acute pancreatitis; overall mortality

Term

Erythromycin

àClarithromycin

àAzithromycin

àTelithromycin (Ketolide)


the macrolide/ketolide family.  what are their absorption differences

Definition
erythromycin in acid labile and the rest are acid stabile, that is why the rest all have better oral absorption than erythro
Term

Erythromycin, clarithromycin and telithromycin MOA, strong inhibitors of what?

 

 

Definition
they block transpeptidyl translocation (strongest againsts gram pos) and inhibit CYP3A4 bc they are substrates
Term
what has intrinsic resistance against macrolides/ketolides? acquired resistance?
Definition

enterococci have intrinsic resistance

 

acquired resistance is arrived at though efflux, the ability to methylate the ribo binding site so drug can't bind, 

Term
Telithromucin adverse effects, but when to use
Definition

GI, hepato, cardiac arrythmia, Myasth. Gravis exacerbation

 

***not approved for use in children

 

used co caPNEUMONIAS  when benefits outweigh risks

Term
CHLOROAMPHENICOLS
Definition

-very lipophilic

 

-hepatic metabol but dependent on enzymes (hepatic tranferases) that neonates have fewer of,

therefore, contraindicated

 

***t1/2 is 3h in adults but very prolonged in kids

***can lead to GRAY BABY SYNDROME

Term
Chloroamphenicol uses and resistances:
Definition

used for anything

 

EXCEPT: shigella, salmonella, P. aerug

***resistance confered by acetyltransferase which aceytlates chloro so it cannot bind to ribo

***only use for life-threatening diseases

***idiopathic bone marrow toxicities

Term
CHLOROAMPHENICOL MOA:
Definition

same as erythros (macrolides, ketolides, AND CLINDAMYCIN); blocks transferase at 50S ribo

 

***however, chloro may also inhibit host prot syn in mitochondria

Term
Chloroamphenicol DIs:
Definition

inhibits CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 thus can increase conc. of things like warfarin and phenytoin

 

**rifampin and phenobarbital can actually decrease Chloroamphenicol levels

Term
antimycrobial most associated with c. diff outbreaks?
Definition
clindamycin bc it depresses colonic flora for up to 2 weeks!
Term
clindamycin resistance?
Definition
constiutive ribo methylation; methylating the sites of binding
Term
clindamycin TX uses:
Definition

skin diseases for Pen allergic pts; caMRSA

 

parasites

Term
what is QUINUPRISITIN/DALFOPRSTIN a ratio of?
Definition
StreptograminB/Streptogramin A 30:70
Term
QUINUPRISITIN/DALFOPRSTIN MOA:
Definition

IV only

 

quinu binds to tranferase site on 50S and prohibts elongation while Dalflo also binds to quino and exacerbates its effects by causing a conformational change of the whole area

 

bacteriostatic alone,bacterioCIDAL together

Term
QUINUPRISITIN/DALFOPRSTIN interactions and cautions:
Definition

c. diff

 

both inhibit CYP3A4, so don't give with other drugs with narrow TI

Term
LINEZOLID administration
Definition

oral and 100% AVAILABILITY

 

hepatic meta

Term
LINEZOLID MOA:
Definition
binds 50S near 30S so neither can bind eachother.  The initial tMet tRNA can bind to 30S, but can't go any further
Term

LINEZOLID sensitive bacteria:

 

DI?

Definition

g. pos aerobes and anaerobic cocci and bacilli.

 

Term
hormones which LINEZOLID inhibits regulation of?
Definition

it inhibits monoamine oxidase which results in an increase of:

dopamine

epinephrine

serotonin

norepi
