Aminoglycosides: (streptomycin, gentamicin, tobramycin, amikacin) / bactericidal 8. Aminoglygosides: Mechanism of Action: Block protein synthesis at 30s ribosomal subunit 9. Amphotericin B: Mechanism of Action: disrupt fungal cell membranes 10. Ampicillin: Mechanism of Action: Blocks cell wall synthesis by inhibition of petidoglycan cross-linking 11. Ampicillin, Amoxicillin: Same mechanism of action as penicillin. Wider spectrum; penicillinase sensitive 12. Ampicillin, amoxicillin (clinical use): ampicillin / amoxicillin HELPS kill enterococci (Haemophilus influenzae, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Proteus mirabilis, Salmonella, enterococci) 13. Ampicillin, amoxicillin (toxicity): Hypersensitivity reactions; ampicillin rash; pseudomembranous colitis
14. Aztreonam: A monobactam resistant to Beta lactamases.
Inhibits cell wall synthesis - synergistic w/ aminoglycosides / no cross-alergenicity w/ penicillins 15. Aztreonam: Mechanism of Action: Blocks cell wall synthesis by inhibition of peptidoglycan cross-linking 16. Aztreonam (clinical use): G- rods (klebsiella species, Pseudomonas species, Serratia species) // no activity against anaerobes. // used for penicillin-allergic patients and those w/ renal insufficiency who can't tolerate aminoglycosides / usually nontoxic - can cause GI upset 17. Bacitracin: Mechanism of Action: Block peptidoglycan synthesis 18. Carbenicillin, Piperacillin, ticarcillin: Same mechanism of action as penicillin; extended spectrum pseudomonas species and G- rods; susceptible to penicillinase; use w/ clavulanic acid; can cause hypersensitivity reaction 19. Cephalosporin toxicity: hypersensitivity, increased nephrotoxicity of aminoglycosides, disulfiram-like reactions w/ ethanol 20. Cephalosporins: Mechanism of Action: Blocks cell wall synthesis by inhibition of peptidoglycan cross-linking 21. Cephalosporins (mechanism of action): beta lactam drugs that inhibit cell wall synthesis but are less susceptible to penicillinases; bactericidal 22. Chloramphenicol: Mechanism of Action: Block Protein synthesis at 50s ribosomal subunit 23. Clindamycin: Mechanism of Action: Block Protein synthesis at 50s ribosomal subunit 24.

Imipenem: Mechanism of Action: Blocks cell wall synthesis by inhibition of peptidoglycan cross-linking 29. Imipenem / cilastatin: Broad-spectrum, beta lactamase-resistant / always given w/ cilastatin (inhibits renal dihydropeptidase 1 --> decrease imipenem inactivation in renal tubules) 30. Imipenem / Cilastatin (clinical use): G+ cocci, G- rods, and anaerobes 31. Imipenem / cilastatin (toxicity: GI distress, skin rash, and CNS toxicity (seizures) at high plasma levels 32.

Methicillin (toxicity): interstitial nephritis 35. Methicillin, nafcillin, dicloxacillin: same mechanism of action as penicillin. Narrow spectrum; Penicillinase resistant due to bulkier R group 36. Methicillin, nafcillin, dicloxacillin: clinical use --> treat staph aureus 37. Nystatin: Mechanism of Action: disrupt fungal cell membranes 38. Penicillin: 2 forms G (IV form) // Penicillin V (oral) 39. Penicillin: Mechanism of Action: Blocks cell wall synthesis by inhibition of peptidoglycan cross-linking 40. Penicillin (clinical use): bactericidal for G+ cocci, G+ rods, G- cooci, and spirochetes. Not penicillinase resistant 41. Penicillin (mechanism of action): 1. Binds penicillin-binding proteins 2.
