6、bleFeatures of Antimicrobial Drugs:Selective Toxicity Cause greater harm to microorganisms than to host Chemotherapeutic index=lowest dose toxic to patient divided by dose typically used for therapyFeatures of Antimicrobial Drugs:Antimicrobial Action Bacteriostatic:inhibit growth of microorganisms B

7、actericidal:Kill microorganismsFeatures of Antimicrobial Drugs:Spectrum of Activity Antimicrobial medications vary with respect to the range of microorganisms they kill or inhibit Some kill only limited range:Narrow-spectrum antimicrobial While others kill wide range of microorganisms:Broad-spectrum

8、 antimicrobialFeatures of Antimicrobial Drugs:Effects of Combining Drugs Combinations are sometimes used to fight infections Synergistic:action of one drug enhances the activity of another Antagonistic:activity of one drug interferes with the action of anotherFeatures of Antimicrobial Drugs:Adverse

9、Effects1.Allergic Reactions:some people develop hypersensitivities to antimicrobials2.Toxic Effects:some antimicrobials toxic at high concentrations or cause adverse effects 3.Suppression of normal flora:when normal flora killed,other pathogens may be able to grow to high numbersFeatures of Antimicr

10、obial Drugs:Resistance to Antimicrobials Some microorganisms inherently resistant to effects of a particular drug Other previously sensitive microorganisms can develop resistance through spontaneous mutations or acquisition of new genesMechanisms of action of Antibacterial Drugs1.Inhibit cell wall s
