Classification:– Narrow spectrum – penicillinase sensitive– Narrow spectrum – penicillinase resistant– Broad spectrum penicillins– Extended-spectrum penicillins
• Penicillins
![Page 5: Antimicrobial agents 2 wafaa](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/586f7e191a28ab10258b8109/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What's the difference between Broad Spectrum and Extended Spectrum antibiotics?
Broad spectrum antibiotics have activity against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria. Examples would be tetracycline and chloramphenicol.
Extended spectrum antibiotics are antibiotics which have had chemical modifications which increase their gram negative coverage. Cephalosporins are a good example. 1st generation cephalosporins have no gram negative coverage. Gram negative coverage progressivly increases as you go higher in generations.

Penicillins
Large diverse group of compounds Could be synthesized in the laboratory more economical to obtain natural penicillin through
microbial fermentation and modify it to semi-synthetic forms
Penicillium chrysogenum – major source All consist of 3 parts
thiazolidine ring beta-lactam ringvariable side chain dictates microbial activity

A- Narrow spectrum – penicillinase (= -lactamase) sensitive
• Benzylpenicillin (penicillin G)Naturally occurring
Poor oral availability (sensitive to stomach acid)
=> given by injection
Active against gram-positive bacteria
• Phenoxymethylpenicillin (penicillin V)
is more acid-stable than benzylpenicillin, which allows
it to be given orally.

Aminoglycosides Aminoglycosides
(bactericidal)
mechanism of action - Aminoglycosides inhibit translation of the mRNA by irreversible binding and change the shape of 30S subunit of the ribosome, causes the misreading of the codons along the mRNA. This misreading of the codons causes an error in translation leading to improper protein expression leading to bacterial cell death.
![Page 31: Antimicrobial agents 2 wafaa](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/586f7e191a28ab10258b8109/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
AminoglycosidesAminoglycosides
Against many Gram- and some Gram+. Most important adverse side-effect: (ototoxicity) and
kidney damage. Resistance – several mechs: inactivation of the drug
by acetylation, or adenylation, to prevent drug access, (streptomycin only).
Synergy - The aminoglycosides synergize with B-lactam antibiotics. The B-lactams inhibit cell wall synthesis and thereby increase the permeability of the aminoglycosides.
![Page 32: Antimicrobial agents 2 wafaa](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/586f7e191a28ab10258b8109/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
AminoglycosidesAminoglycosides Gentamicin – used for acute, life-thretening gram- infections.
Has synergism with pen and van and combo. Amikacin – used for bact that are gent-resistant. Netilmicin – less toxic than gentamicin. Neomycin – too toxic for parenteral use. Used for topically
for skin infections and orally for sterilizing bowel before surgery.
Streptomycin – active against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. But bec of its ototoxicity, rifampicin replaces.
Rifampicin – resistance develops quickly alone; so, with TB, combine with isoniazid, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide for the 1st 2 mos of treatment, followed by another 4 mos with rifampicin and isoniazid.

Tetracyclines (bacteriostatic)tetracycline, minocycline and doxycycline
Mode of action - The tetracyclines reversibly bind to the 30S ribosome and inhibit binding of aminoacyl-t-RNA to the acceptor site on ribosome (mRNA).
Spectrum of activity - Broad spectrum; Useful against intracellular bacteria
Adverse effects – Super infection: Destruction of normal
intestinal flora resulting in increased secondary infections.
staining and impairment of the structure of bone and teeth.
Photosensitivity so Patients should be kept out of heavy sunlight when receiving tetracyclines

TetracyclinesTetracyclines
Penetration into cell requires an energy-dependent transport not present in mammals.
Stable chelate complexes are formed by the tetracyclines with many metals, including calcium, magnesium, and iron. Such chelates are usually very insoluble in water (so Oral absorption impaired by food
Resistant organisms develop 1. an efflux pump and do not accumulate the drug.2. Genes for tet-resistance transmitted by plasmids.

• The most important members of the group are erythromycin, clarithromycin, azithromycin, spiramycinbacteriostatic
Spectrum of activity – Narrow spectrum bacteriostatic mainly against Gram-positive bacteria, Mycoplasma, Legionella (intracellular bacterias) but not against the Enterobacteriaceae.
Macrolides are bacteriostatic for most bacteria but are cidal for a few Gram-positive bacteria.
• Macrolides
• Erythromycin is acid labile but is given as an enterically coated tablet.• Macrolides are widely distributed in the body except to the brain and cerebrospinal fluid.• Few side effects (GI disturbances)
![Page 37: Antimicrobial agents 2 wafaa](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062400/586f7e191a28ab10258b8109/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
It binds at the P-site of the 50S ribosomal subunit. As a result of which, during translation, the P-site is occupied by the macrolide. When the t-RNA attached with the peptide chain tries to move to the P-site, it cannot go there due to the presence of the macrolide, thus getting thrown away. This prevents the transfer of the peptidyl tRNA from the A-site to the P-site and blocks the protein synthesis due to the inhibition of the translocation of the nascent peptide chain.
Mechanism of action:

ChloramphenicolChloramphenicol Lincomycin, Clindamycin (bacteriostatic)
Mode of action - These antimicrobials bind to the 50S ribosome and inhibit (polypeptide bond formation) peptidyl transferase activity.
Spectrum of activity - Chloramphenicol - Broad range;Lincomycin and clindamycin - Restricted range
Resistance - Common
Adverse effects - Chloramphenicol is toxic (bone marrow suppression) but is used in the treatment of bacterial meningitis.
