Bacteriostatic depends on the hosts immune system to eliminate the bacteria and duration of drug therapy. If antibiotic is stopped early…the bacteria may grow and have been exposed to antibiotics

Synthesis….creation of…what do you think would happen if the cell wall was not strong?

Gram positive streptococci pnuemonia

Effective against strep, staph, gonococi, meningococci, treponema pallidum, & organism

Parenteral??? What does that mean

Resistance to beta lactam antibiotics through penicillinase and cephalosporinase are enzymes that act on pcn

Clinically important for gram negative infections

Cocci pcn cheaper and more effective

Chemically similar to pcn incidence of cross-sensitivity is low especially with delayed reactions

Pg 519 med error

There are many, many cephalosporins 4 generations, Many sound alike

How do you think we give them?

Since sulfanimides inhibit rather than kill bacteria they MUST be taken as prescribed and for the full duration of therapy

Hydration prevents crytaluria
