|
MOA
|
Bind to transpeptidases and block cross-linking of peptidoglycan residues resulting in weak cell walls and bacterial lysis in bacteria that are actively growing
|
|
PK
|
Excreted really
Penetration into the eye, prostate, and CNS is poor, Absorption impaired by food-take 1-2 hrs before or after meal to prevent protein binding, acid inactivation |
|
AE
|
Hypersensitivity, anaphylaxis, super infections, diarrhea, convulsions (high dose, renal failure, epileptic pts) , hematolgic toxicities, nephritis, cation toxicity
|
|
PENICILLIN G
|
Unstable in acidic pH, given IV over IM
More active against gram-negative organisms (i.e., Neisseria) than penicillin V. |
