Mechanisms
This class of antibacterials kills bacteria by inhibiting folic acid synthesis.
What are sulphonamides?
Beta-lactams are known to have adverse effects including hypersensitivity, colitis in hind gut fermenters, contact dermititis, and this.
What is decreasing seizure threshold?
This group of bacteria is the main target for aminoglycocides.
What are Gram negative aerobes?
This class of drugs is the only one that is all 2nd line.
What are fluorquinalones?
Although the other group of beta-lactams is 90% bioavailable orally, this group of beta-lactams is not acid-stable.
What is Penicillin G?
Cephalosporins kill bacteria via this mechanism of action.
What are inhibiting cell wall synthesis?
Retinal damage is an adverse effect for this class of drug, often in cats taking enrofloxacin.
What are fluorquinalones?
Amoxicillin affects this group of bacteria that penicillin G does not.
What are gram negative aerobes?
Although the first generation is first line, the third generation of this class of drugs are second line.
What are cephalosporins?
Both macrolides and fluorquinalones are concentrated in this part of the body.
What are the lungs?
Fluorquinalones and chloramphenicols kill bacteria via this mechanism of action.
What is inhibiting DNA synthesis?
Both tetracyclines and macrolides have this shared adverse effect.
What is tissue irritation (vomiting oral and pain injection)?
What is broad spectrum?
The newer forms of this class of drug are considered second line, while erythromycin is first line.
What are macrolides?
These two classes of antibacterials are great at targeting intracellular pathogens.
What are tetracyclines and macrolides?
These three classes of drugs kill bacterias by inhibiting protein synthesis?
What are aminoglycosides, tetracyclines, and macrolides?
These three classes of antibacterials all have nephrotoxic effects.
What are aminoglycosides, tetracyclines, and sulfonamides.
Along with gram negative aerobes, aminoglycocides are effective against what types of bacteria?
What are Staphylococcus and Mycoplasma?
This is the method we should use 2nd line aminoglycosides.
What is systemically?
The half life of erythromycin, a macrolide, is this compared to the newer macrolides.
What is shorter?
These two types of antibacterial drug classes kill bacteria through inhibiting protein synthesis, specifically bacteriostatic.
Fluorquinalones have three main adverse effects, including retinal damage. These are the other two.
What are decreased seizure threshold and cartilage damage?
Sulfonamides are similar to tetracyclines but are also useful in this one key area for all species.
What are UTIs?
This type of of beta-lactams are used for 2nd line only.
What are potentiated penicillins?
Which specific group of class of drugs can readily go into the CNS?
What are 3rd generation cephalosporins?
