TermDefinition
Sulphonamideinhibit nucleic acid synthesis; inhibit dihydrofolate synthestase (inhibiting folate production, required for DNA replication); bacteriostatic, most well absorbed from gut, cojugated by liver
Trimethopriminhibit nucleic acid synthesis; inhibits dihydrofolate reductase (inhibiting folate production, required for DNA replication)
Co-trimoxazolemixture of trimethorprim and sulphamethoxazole (a sulphonamide); rapidly absorbed from GIT, excreted in urine, excreted by urine
PenicillinB-lactam; Inhibits cell wall synthesis (preventing cross-linkage between peptidoglycan chains) e.g. amoxycillin
CephalosporinB-lactam; Inhibits cell wall synthesis (preventing cross-linkage between peptidoglycan chains) e.g. cephalexin
carbapenemB-lactam; Inhibits cell wall synthesis (preventing cross-linkage between peptidoglycan chains) e.g. imipenem
monobactamB-lactam; Inhibits cell wall synthesis (preventing cross-linkage between peptidoglycan chains) e.g. aztreonam
vancomycininhibits cell wall synthesis; inhibits peptidoglycan formation
aminoglycosideinhibits protein synthesis; binds to 30S subunit and inhibits binding of aminoacyl-tRNA
tetracyclineinhibits protein synthesis; binds to 30S subunit and inhibits binding of aminoacyl-tRNA
macrolideinhibit protein synthesis; inhibits peptidyl transferase activity at 50S subunit e.g. erthromycin, roxithromycin
