The drugs in this group have a similar mechanism of action, weakening the bacteria cell wall and includes penicillins and cephalosporins

Answer 1Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

First generation are often used in place of penicillin due to allergy, but only if the allergic reaction was mild

Answer 2Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

Is active against several resistant organisms, including MRSA and C-diff

Answer 3Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

Allergy to this drug class can decrease over time, so skin testing can be used to determine the extent of allergic reaction and its possible use if necessary

Answer 4Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins
These antibiotics are the most common cause of drug allergy Answer 5Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

Most widely used antibiotic in US hospitals

Answer 6Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

This group of antibiotics is the most widely used group, is broad spectrum, bactericidal, with low toxicity and is divided into 5 generations 

Answer 7Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

This group of drugs has a ring in their structure and all disrupt the bacterial cell wall 

Answer 8Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

The later generations have been developed to better resist beta-lactamase, be active against gram negative bacteria, and better distribution to cerebrospinal fluid

Answer 9Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

Is poorly absorbed from the GI tract, so is primarily given IV.  Is given orally to treat C-diff

Answer 10Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

Weakens the bacterial cell wall, but is not a beta-lactam antibiotic

Answer 11Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

By weakening the bacterial cell wall, these drugs cause the bacteria to take up excessive amounts of water and rupture, resulting in death of the bacteria

Answer 12Choose…Beta-lactam antibioticsVancomycinCephalosporinsPenicillins

Allergic reaction  to one drug in this group results in possibility of allergic reaction to others in this group and thus all drugs in the group should be avoided.
