ANTIBIOTICS


Aminoglycosides – bacteriocidal in action, by inhibiting protein synthesis in strains of gram-negative bacteria, therefore destabilizing the cell membrane

Side effects include auditory nerve damage, tinnitus, deafness, renal toxicity.
            Amikacin                                                         Tobramycin
            Gentamicin                                                      Kanamycin
            Streptomycin                                                   Neomycin


Cephalosporins  (Cef.......) – bacteriocidal and bacteriostatic, prevent cell wall stability when the bacteria divide

Side effects include cross-sensitivity to a person who is allergic to penicillin, GI effects, and nephrotoxicity.
            cefaclor                                                           cefadroxil
            cefazolin                                                          cefdinir
            cefditoren                                                        cefepime
            cefotaxime                                                      cefotetan
            cefoxitin                                                          ceftazadime
            cefpoxidime                                                    cefprozil
            ceftibuten                                                        ceftriaxone
            cefuroxime                                                      cefhalexin
            cefhapirin                                                        lorcarbef


Flouriquinolones – bactericidal, by interfering with DNA enzymes necessary for bacterial reproduction. 

Side effects include GI distress, inhibiting bone growth, and neurotoxicity with CNS symptoms, i.e. lowers the seizure threshold.
            ciprofloxacin                                                   gatifloxacin
            gemifloxicin                                                    levofloxacin
            lomefloxacin                                                   moxifloxacin
            norfloxacin                                                      ofloxacin
            sparfloxacin                                                     trovafloxacin


Macrolides – interfere with protein synthesis in bacteria

Side effects include GI distress, and pseudomembranous colitis, and neurotoxicity with CNS symptoms.
            erythromycin
            azithromycin
            clarithromycin
            dirithromycin

Lincosamides – similar to macrolides but more toxic.   

Side effects include bone marrow depression and pain, and toxic colitis                   
clindamycin and lincomycin – used for resistant organisms  

Monobactam Antibiotics – disrupts the cell wall and causes cell death by leakage. 

Side effects include GI distress, hepatic enzyme elevation, allergic response to someone who is anaphylactic to penicillins.
aztreonam

Penicillins  (....cin’s) – Bactericidal by interfering with bacterial cell wall reproduction.  

 Side effects include GI distress, sore mouth, furry tongue, rash, anaphylaxis.
            amoxicillin                                                       ampicillin
            carbenicillin                                                     PCN –G –benthazine
            PCN-G – potassium                                        PCN –G – procaine
            PCN – V
            pipercillin                                                        ticarcillin      

Penicillinase Resistant Antibiotics –bactericidal by same mechanisms but better fit for drug resistant organisms that produce penicillinase.

            dicloxicillin
            nafcillin
            oxacillin

Sulfonamides – bacteriostatic byblocking PABA, thereby inhibiting folic acid synthesis (which is necessary for replication of purines and pyrimidines), precursors of RNA and DNA; becoming less used as bacteria are becoming more resistant.  

Side effects are GI, rash, birth defects.
            cotrimoxazole
            sulfazadine
            sulfasalazine
            sulfasoxazole
            sulfadiazine

Tetracyclines (....cline’s) - = “four rings”, bacteriocidal by inhibiting protein synthesis. 

Side effects; disturbed bone and tooth growth, enamel formation, GI effects, and hepatic toxicity. Wide-spectrum antibiotics
            demeclocycline                                               doxycycline
            minocycline                                                     oxytetracycline
            tetracycline

Anti-mycobacterial antibiotics – bactericidal by DNA inhibition
            Anti-Tuberculosis drugs – need to be used for at least six months to 2 years to be effective.  This is because mycobacterium take so long to grow and replicate.   

                 capreomycin                                               cycloserine
                 ethambutol                                                 ethionamide
                 isoniazid (INH)                                           pyrazinamide
                 rifampin - + INH = liver toxicity                   rifapentine
                 streptomycin – common anaphylaxis after the first dose has sensitized the pt.

Anti-mycobacterial antibiotics – bactericidal and bacteriostatic Leprostatic Drugs – antibiotics used to treat leprosy and other skin diseases

                 dapsone – used for PCP pneumonia, leprosy, skin infections, and recluse bites.
                 clofazimine – used for dapsone - resistant leprosy
