4th gen Ceph | Cefclidine, Cefepime (Maxipime), Cefrom |
1st gen Ceph efficacy: | GP: MSSA/MSS strep; not vs MRSA/strep; GN: PEcK (Prot, e coli, Klebs) |
Cefuroxime efficacy: | No GP; GN: HEN (H flu, Enterobacter aerogenes, some Neisseria )+ PEcK; >Gen1 |
3rd gen Ceph efficacy: | GN: Broad spectrum, esp hosp acquired; meningitis (pneumococci, meningococci, H flu, some E coli/Klebs); ceftriaxone / cefixime for NG |
4th gen Ceph efficacy: | GP: MSSA/MSS strep; not vs MRSA/strep; GN: exp beta-lactamase, meningitis, pseudomonas |
5th gen Ceph (Ceftobiprole, Ceftaroline) efficacy: | Antipseudomonal |
tetanus tx | IM IG; post recovery, full tetanus toxoid; PCN; DTaP/TDaP booster q 10 yrs (if clean wound; 5 yrs if dirty wound) |
Tetanus IG: give if: | pt has dirty wound & imms hx unknown, OR not fully immunized (ie, received <3 doses) |
Tetanus toxoid: give if: | 1) pt’s tetanus imms hx unknown or got <3 doses; 2) wound is >24 hrs old; 3) pt’s last booster was >5 yrs (if dirty wound) or >10 yrs (if clean wound) |
Diphtheria tx | serum antitoxin; airway (poss membrane removal via laryngoscopy); PCN or erythro/zithro; test of cure |
HSV tx | antivirals (acyclovir, valcyclovir); trifluridine for HSV keratitis; Foscarnet for immunocompromised pts |
CMV tx | ganciclovir, valganciclovir, foscarnet, cidofovir |
Severe Rhinosinusitis tx | Augmentin; macro or ceph |
Monobactams w/antipseudomonal action = | Imipenem & meropenem |
PCNs MOA: | inhibit peptidoglycan cross linking |
Aminoglycoside MOA | prevent mRNA translation into proteins |
Glycopeptides (vancomycin, daptomycin) MOA | inhibit peptidoglycan cross linking (Gram pos orgs only) |
FQs MOA | inhibit bacterial DNA gyrase |
macrolides MOA | bind to 50S ribosome (interfere w/protein synthesis) |
Oxazolidinones MOA | inhibit protein synthesis at 50S ribosomal subunit |
macrolides: effective against: | GPC, some anaerobes (NOT Bacteroides), mycoplasma, chlamydia |
Flagyl MOA | accepts electrons under anaerobic conditions => metabolite toxic to bac DNA |
tetracyclines MOA | locking tRNA to septal site of mRNA (thus interfere w/pro synthesis) |
SMX-TMP MOA | inhibit synthesis of tetrahydrofolate |
MRSA (cellulitis) tx | Vanco +/- rifampin, gentamicin, linezolid |
Non-gono arthritis: gram neg: tx | ceftazidime or genta; IV 2wks & po 4 wks |
3 major types of HIV tx | Nucleoside & nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (zidovudine, abacavir, tenofovir). Protease inhibitors (ritonavir). Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (efavirenz). Entry inhibitors. Integrase inhibitors (raltegravir). |
EBV / mono tx | Supportive. No contact sports >1 month. Avoid amoxicillin for strep co-infection (increases rash from 15% to 90%) |
Rabies mgmt. | Rabies IG infiltrated around wound. Inactivated rabies vax on days 0, 3, 7, 14, 28 post exposure. Milwaukee protocol (coma). |
RSV tx | O2 support PRN. Corticosteroids, bronchodilators, ribavirin (poor evidence of benefit). High-risk infants (heart dz) get palivizumab. |
West Nile virus tx | Intensive supportive easures. IVIG or interferon alpha. |
Anthrax tx | Cipro or doxy. (second: amox, Pen G, clinda, clarithro, vanco, imipenem. |

Botulism mgmt. | Admit to ICU => intubation. Antitoxin from CDC to neutralize unabsorbed toxin. |
Brucellosis tx | Doxy plus rifampin +/- streptomycin +/- gentamicin |
Campylobacter mgmt. | Tx may shorten dz course. Azithromycin or Cipro (FQ resistance rising). Fluid & lyte replacement |
Role of vax in cholera | Provides only short term protection; not useful in managing outbreaks |
Cholera mgmt. | PO or IV fluid replacement. Abx may shorten course, but there is often resistance |
Diphteria mgmt. | Diphtheria antitoxin (from CDC). Remove membrane. Erythromycin or PCN eliminate organism (secondline: other macrolides) |
Hospitalization & isolation for diphtheria are needed until: | 3 cultures document elimination of organism |
MAC mgmt. | TOC: clarithromycin and ethambutol +/- rifabutin. Possibly azithromycin. |
Additional mgmt. for MAC in HIV+ patients with CD4 <50 cells/microliter | Single-drug prophylaxis |
Erysipeloid mgmt. | Usually self limiting in 3-4 weeks. Pen G, imipenem, cephalosporins, clinda, cipro. |
Hansen disease mgmt. | Lepromatous: combo tx with dapsone rifampin, & clofazimine x2-3 years (due to single-drug resistance). Tuberculoid: dapsone & rifampin x6-12 months, then dapson x2 years |
Salmonella tx | Cipro, Bactrim, or ampicillin (if severe or HIV or SCD). Enteric fever: IV cipro, Levaquin, CTX, or per C&S. |
Shigella tx | Hydration / lyte repletion. Bactrim or FQ is TOC. Azithro in MDR. |
Mgmt. of Lyme complications | CNS/cardiac dz: IV Pen G, CTX, or cefotaxime x2-4 weeks. Arthritis: PO doxy or amox up to 60 days (vs Pen G or cefotaxime up to 4 weeks) |
