MOA: Inactivate Transpeptidase (PBPs) &
prevent cross linking
Penicillin (Bactericidal)
Gram (+) /Syphilis / Gonorrhea /Pneumococcal
pneumonia
Penicillin V → Oral
(DONM) Dicloxacillin, Oxacillin, Nafcillin,
Methicillin → for staph infection
Broad/Extended-spectrum penicillin (Amino
penicillin)
Ampicillin → more gram (-)
prophylactic endocarditis before surgery
prophylactic by dentist for abnormal heart
valve
Piperacillin (more potent), Carbinacillin and
Ticarcillin
S/E : Penicillin→ Pen → →
DHAN :- Diarrhea → due to superinfection
Hematological toxicities
Anaphylactic → 5 - 10% of the patient
Nephritis → Methicillin
Beta-lactam inhibitors:
Clavulanic acid (irreversible of B-lactamase) + Amoxicillin
→ Augmentin
Clavulanic acid + Ticarcillin → Timentin
Tazobactam + Piperacillin
Sulbactam + Ampicillin
Carbapenem (Bactericidal)
MEDIC : Meropenem
Ertapenem
Doripenem
Imipenem/Cilastatin
No cross resistant
Cilastatin (like a bodyguard) → Inhibits renal
dehydropeptidase (that enzyme inactivate
Imipenem )
✓ Pseudomonas
S/E: Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea, Skin rash, Seizure
Monobactam (Bactericidal)
No Cross resistant
✓ gram-negative, P. aeruginosa, E. coli and
Enterobacter
Anaerobic, gram-positive
parentally
Aztreonam
Vancomycin
MRSA, MRSE, C.difficile colitis (when
orally)
▪ ✓ BBB in meningitis, slow IV
MOA: Inhibits transglycosylase → ↓ cell
membrane activity
S/E: FONT → Flushing (Redman syndrome due
histamine release), Ototoxicity, Nephrotoxicity
Thrombophlebitis
Doptamycin
✓ MRSE, ✓ VRE, complicated skin
infection, endocarditis
▪ ❌ NEVER in pneumonia
MOA : depolarizing the cell membrane → loss
of membrane potential → cell death
S/E: insomnia, myalgia, constipation, headache and
nausea
Cell wall Page 1
MOA: Inactivate Transpeptidase (PBPs) & prevent
cross linking
UTI, prophylactic and gram (+)
❌ BBB except Cefuroxime ✓ BBB
Streptococcus infection, UTI, respiratory,
bone and soft tissue infection, prophylactic
▪ ↓ gram (+) → ❌ S.epidermis
Second Generation: Cefotetan, Cefoxitin,
Cefuroxime ( Zinnat ®)
Gonorrhea, Empirical for meningitis, Lyme and
Gram (-)
▪ ✓ BBB except Cefoperazone ❌ BBB
Ceftazidime, Cefoperazone ✓ P. aeruginosa
Third Generation: Cefotaxime, Ceftazidime,
Ceftriaxone, Cefixime, Cefdinir (Adcef®) ,
Ceftizoxime, Cefoperazone
▪ Pseudomonas, Gram (-), Gram (+)
MRSE, broad spectrum
Cephalosporin (Bactericidal)
S/E: Bleeding disorders, Allergic reaction, Alcohol
intolerance (disulfiram-like), Nephrotoxic except
Cefuroxime and Super infection # 1 cause of C.difficile
colitis
C/I: SJS toxic epidermal necrolysis
Telavancin
Complicated skin infection, ✓ MRSE,
MOA: Inhibits transglycosylase → ↓ cell
membrane activity
S/E: Prolongation of QT (torsades de pointes),
Insomnia, Foamy urine and Teratogenic
UTI, first line in acute cystitis
No cross resistant
Once daily dose/oral (granules)
Fosfomycin (Bactericidal)
S/E: Headache, Vaginitis, Diarrhea, Nausea
✓ P. aeruginosa, gram-negative
polymyxin B → all but not oral
polymyxin E (Colistin) → IV or inhaled
Polymyxin
S/E: Nephrotoxic, Neurotoxic
