Aminoglikozid and Cefo 222
• They are bactericidal beta lactam antibiotics that inhibit transpeptidase enzyme in
cell wall synthesis.
• They are usually excreted through the kidneys and uricosuric drugs such as
probenecid reduce their tubular secretion.
• Cephalosparins such as cephalexin, cefaclor, cefadroxil, cephradine, cefprozil,
loracarbef, ceftibuten, cefuroxime axetil, cefixime and cefpodoxime are used
orally.
Classification of Cephalosporins
• Cefazolin is also preferred for surgical prophylaxis. Cephalothin is the shortest acting
cephalosporin.
• Cephalexin is often prescribed to outpatients
• Ceftriaxone is often used in the treatment of sexually transmitted diseases and pediatric
meningitis.
• cefepime is used in the treatment of psodomonas infections.
• Pseudomonas infections are diseases caused by a bacterium from the
genus Pseudomonas. The bacteria are found widely in the environment,
such as in soil, water, and plants.
Second Generation Cephalosparins
• Their spectrum of action is a little wider than the first generation.They are more
effective against gram-negative bacteria.
• Cefoxitin is the most effective cephalosporin against anaerobic bacteria and is
used in intra-abdominal infections due to bacteroides fragilis.
• The most important differences from the second generation are that they are more
effective against pseudomanas and enterococci and pass more to central nervous
system.
• Their efficacy to gram positive cocci is lower than the first generation.
• Ceftriaxone has a long duration of action and can form bile sludge and is used in
meningitis prophylaxis.
• Ceftazidime is the most effective to pseudomanas, cefaperazone is the
cephalosporin that is excreted the most in bile. Ceftriaxone, ceftazidime and
cefotaxime pass into the cerebrospinal fluid at high rates.
Fourth generation cephalosporins
• This group includes cefepime and cefpiroma. The most important difference from
the third generation is that they are more effective against enterococci and the
most resistant cephalosporins to beta lactamase enzyme
Fifth Generation Cephalosporins
• They are absorbed very little from the gastrointestinal tract and, aminoglycosides
are polar drugs, they are given only parentally for systemic effect
• Neomycin is used orally to clean the intestines in colorectal surgeons.
• It is the aminoglycoside group antibiotics with the widest spectrum and the least
resistance. It is one of the second-line drugs in the treatment of tuberculosis.
Without disturbing the balance function, impairs hearing function.
Paromomycin
• İt is an aminoglycoside antibiotic used locally in the treatment of
tapeworm and amoeba in the colon, and parenterally in the
treatment of visceral leishmaniasis.
Netilmicin
• It is the least ototoxic aminoglycoside.
Spectinomycin
• Neomycin can be given to reduce the aerobic bacterial flora in colorectal surgeries and
hepatic coma.
