  1. 1Whats are they?pneumonia: bacteria- antibiotics
    HIV: virus-antivirus
    Thrush: candidosis-antifungal
  2. 2Anti-infectives mechanism in bodyanti-infective-effector/delivery system-desired organisn-body undesired
  3. 3Mechanism of action: efficacyinhibit cell wall synthesis= bactericidal e.g. penicillin, cephalsporins
    disrupt cell membrane= bactericidal or bacteriostatic e.g antifungals
    inihibit metabolism = folic acid
    bacteriostatic=trimethoprim sulphamethoxazole
    inhibit protein synthesis, bacteriostatic=tetracyclines, macrolides
    bactericidal= gentamicin
  4. 4antibiotics spectrum of activity: efficacy (2)narrow spectrum: active against a few species, ben pen, gram +
    moderate spectrum: active against several species, amoxycillin
    Broad spectrum: effective against many species, tetracyclines
  5. 5Narrow spectrum better why?because of antibiotic resistance, doesn't kill good bacteria as well
  6. 6anti-infectives-immune systemantibiotics don't cure infections, immune system does.
    antibiotics just kill enough bacteria and slow down their growth, especially bacteriostatic
  7. 7Antibiotics efficacy (3)time-dependent killing: time above minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC)
    concentration-dependent killing: depends on dose higher the peak
  8. 8Antibiotics: harmful effectsGI, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, CNS
    superinfection, candidosis, thrush
    hypersensitivity: interaction with antigens-rash, anaphylaxis
    antibiotic associated colitis, penicillins, tetracyclines
    WHY?
    prevent access to microbe
    microbe produces destructive enzyme
    microbe changes drug binding site etc
  9. 9principle use of antibioticsuse narrowest specturm, use single drug, use dose high enough to achieve efficacy, and minimise dose-related toxicity
  10. 10antibiotic use: prophylaxisdo not exceed 7 days
    single dose of antibiotics
  11. 11Duration of therapysingle dose: prophylaxis
    short course: 5 days, UTIS
    longer course: 5-10 days, pnenmonia, cellulitis
    prolonged course: more than 10 days, endocarditis, tuberbulosis
  12. 12Penicillinsbactericidal= inhibit cell wall synthesis
    safety: diarrhoea, nausea/vomiting
  13. 13Pencillins narrow spectrumben pen: IM, IV, not acid stable, endocarditis, meningitis, pneumonia
    Phenoxymethyl pencillin: tonsillitis, skin infections, acid stable
    benzathine penicillin: IM, long-acting, rheumatic fever prevention
    procaine penicillin: resp tract infections, IM
  14. 14Penicillin moderate spectrumamoxycillin/amppicillin
    more effective against gram - than ben pen
    oral or IV
    use: pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, sinusitis
  15. 15Penicilllins: broad spectrumamoxycillin and clavulanic acid
    adverse effect: rash, hepatitis cholestatic
  16. 16B-lactams:narrow-wdie spectrum, interferes with bacterial cell wall synthesis, bacteriacidal, can cause allergy/ hepatotoxicity
  17. 17Aminoglycosidesinhibits bacterial protein synthesis, bacteriacidal, gram - infections, can cause ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity
  18. 18Macrolidesinhibits bacterial protein synthesis, bactericidal, gram + and - infections, can cause otoxicity/ nephrotoxicity
  19. 19Quniolonesinhibits bacterial DNA synthesis, bactericidal, broad spcetrum, serious infections
  20. 20Tetracyclinesinhibits bacterial protein synthesis, bacteriostatic, broad spectrum
  21. 21lincosamidesinhibits bacterial protein synthesis, bacteriostatic, gram +
  22. 22Antibiotics, which one?use narrow specturm
    use safest and short duration
    use dose hgih enough to reach MIC but avoid resistance
    routes oral
    dont use in combination and prophylaxis
  23. 23Antiviralsmultiple daily dosing
    influenza A and B: block viral uncoating or neuramidinases of virus
    HIV protease inhibitors cause drug-drug interactions due to inhibition of metabolism (CYP3A enzyme)
    adverse effects, nausea, diarrhoea, CNS disturbances
  24. 24Antifungalsazoles
    safe topical drugs for skin, nail, vaginal, oral and IV admin
  25. 25What is inflammation?non-specific response to injury
    pain, redness, swelling, white blood cells
  26. 26Mediators involved in inflammationProstaglandins, histamine, bradykinin, cytokines, PAF,
    PGS from arachidonic acid mediated by COX enzyme
    two isoforms COX 1 and COX 2
  27. 27COX -1involved in physiological function (gastric mucosal integrtiy, platelet homeostasis, regulation of renal blood flow
  28. 28COX -2involved in inflammatory reactions and inflammatory pain, and fever
    located in endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear membranes
  29. 29Prostaglandins steps1. cell damage, hormone stimulation causes release of arachidonic acid
    2. prostaglandins synthesised form arachidonic acid
    3. initial steps catalysed by COX enzyme
    4. prostaglandins are released during inflammation:
    acute inflammation
    chronic inflammation
  30. 30Prostaglandin receptorsmajor role in
    inflammatory process
    fever induction
    pituitary function
    renal function
    gastric mucosal integrity
  31. 31Steriodal agentspotent side effects
    act via modulation of gene transcription
    decrease production of COX
    takes 24-48 hrs to have effect
    mostly used in chronic inflammation
  32. 32Non-steroidal agentsuse in relief of pain, arthirtis, headache, inflammation, rapid effects.
  33. 33NSAIDS 3 major effectsanti-inflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic
  34. 34NSAIDS adverse effectspeptic ulcer
    GI bleeding
    skin rash
  35. 35Non-selective COX-1inhibitorsproduces prostaglandins involved in physiological functions:
    platelet homeostasis, gastric mucosal integrity, renal blood flow
    e.g. aspirin, blocks both COX-1 and COX-2, good and bad PGs
    side effects: GIT erosion, bleeding, skin rash, prolonged bleeding
  36. 36Non-selective COX-2 inhibitorsblocks only COX-2, bad PGs, reduced GIT effects
    produce prostaglandins, involved in inflammatory reactions and pain
  37. 37Corticosteroidsanti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects
    potent anti-inflammatory effects, with significant adverse effects, infection, osteoporosis, reduce in cytokines
