  1. Antimicrobial agents PharmDr. Ondřej Zendulka, Ph.D.

  2. Antimicrobial agents • difference antibiotics-chemotherapeutics • classification: • chem. structure • mechanism of action • extent of effect • antibacterial spectrum

  3. Antimicrobial agents • Mechanisms of action: selective toxicity • interference with the cell wall • block of bact. cell metabolism • nucleic acid synthesis inhibition • proteosynthesis inhibition

  4. Antimicrobial agents Bacterial cell wall

  5. Antimicrobial agents Bacterial cell wall

  6. Antimicrobial agents Bacterial cell wall

  7. Terminology • selective toxicity • antimicrobial spectrum • MIC, MBC, MAC • postantibiotic effect • resistance

  8. Antimicrobial agents Resistance = ability of microbial cells to withstand the effect of ATB • Mechanisms of resistance: • decrease of ATB‘s intracelullar conc. • inactivation of ATB • modification of ATB‘s target site

  9. Antimicrobial agents • absolute • relative • primary • secondary • coupled • cross

  10. Antimicrobial agents • Combinations of ATBs: • spectrum widening • resistance development restriction • decrease in AE incidence • increase in effectivity • effects: synergistic, additive, indifferent, antagonistic

  11. Antimicrobial agents • Which ATB? • empirical x bacterial sensitivity • pharmacokinetics • Antibiotic policy in CR • prophylactic administration of ATBs

  28. Trimethoprim • blocks dihydrofolate reductase (50 000x more selective to bacterial enzyme) • synergistic effect with sulphonamides • high levels in prostate and vaginal mucus (lower pH) • CYP metabolism • urine (low pH = faster elimination) • combination: trimethoprim a sulfamethoxazole = co-trimoxazole 1:5: Triprim, Biseptol Kotrimoxazol, Sumetrolin • I: respiratory infections, prevention and therapy of pneumonia, urinary infections
