| Types of organisms killed by 3rd generation cephalosporins | Best: G- poor: G+ |
| Coadministration with these may decrease oral absorption of tetracyclines | milk, antacids, iron salts |
| This reason precludes use of tetracycline in pregnant/lactating women and ped. patients | binds to calcium, stains teeth of neonate or child |

| 2 drugs or drug classes that interact with quinolones | theophylline and oral anticoagulants |
| key drug- aminoglycocides | Gentamycin, amikacin |
| Two serious toxicities of aminoglycosides | Nephrotoxicity (renal failure) and ototoxicity (hearing loss) |
| Renal function blood tests that will be monitored before and during aminoglycoside therapy | BUN and serum creatinine levels |
| Symptoms of ototoxicity | Tinnitus, dizziness, feeling of fullness in ears, hearing loss |
| Terms for blood levels drawn 1 hr after drug administration and just prior to next dose | peak and trough |
