Just to clarify a small point: Clastin is not a beta lactamase inhibitor. Cilastatin is a chemical compound which inhibits the human enzyme dehydropeptidase. Dehydropeptidase is an enzyme found in the kidney and is responsible for degrading the antibiotic imipenem. Cilastatin can therefore be combined intravenously with imipenem in order to protect it from dehydropeptidase and prolong its antibacterial effect.(wikipedia). Very good lecture overall. Thank you

Tetracycline coverage isn't totally random, there is a general pattern: intracellular pathogens.

Dr Bolin: I love all of your videos. I'm wondering if it's possible to post PDFs of your charts such as the Antibacterials on that starts off this video. Do you have a website where they could be posted?

[@wenshuangnie2694]

Sweet vids Doc B, studying for the Canadian family boards, love how you keep it so simple and clinically relevant. Whopppeee! Thanks, again,

[@alexandremello6913]

Great videos, Dr Bolin. Thank you for putting them up. Just a comment to try to improve this further: clavulanate and all the other compounds that are referred to in your talk as B-lactamases are actually B-lactamase inhibitors. The actual B-lactamases are enzymes that belong in the bacteria that we are targeting. These enzymes can inactivate molecules such as amoxicillin, and this is the reason why these inhibitors are given together with the active principles.

Your efforts behind the video is well appreciated...

[@olgakuznetsova988]

Thank you, dr Bolin! This topic is so clear for me now! Perfect presentation

[@fgsaab]

Very important additions: The fluoroquinolones also cover pseudomonas. And bactrim, clinda, and doxy all cover MRSA. Thanks for your presentation!

[@katepeiyinzhang507]

Thank you Dr. Bolin for your clear presentation :)!!! It helps a lot for my finals :D

[@lizgarza5770]

The drawings summary sheets shown on the right upper corner would be very helpful to have along with your ppt slides to print and review.

[@jothikhanna2235]

Thank you so much doc..just now i em preparing for exams ....very good lecture..Thank you so much

[@Sam_1964]

Excellent presentation. Vancomycin causes Red man syndrome. Aztreonam is not Aminoglycozide and is used in patient allergic to Penicillins. Vancomycin PO for C. Diff. Ampicillin or Vancomycin is used to cover enterococci. Thank you for your efforts

[@mariamaljneibi9387]

What the treatment of lyme disease below 8 years old, ampicillin or amoxcillin ??

[@shriswamiramanand]

[@mubusharraza3464]

[@woloabel]

9/22/2022: Infectious Diseases: Antibacterials (Pharmacology)....Uberall 47!

[@ravneet1998]

Dr Paul Bolin you missed on 5th generation cephalosporin CEFTAROLINE which covers MRSA

[@almazava]

Thank you! I am looking for something to prepare for drug ads questions. Please, let me know... thank you

[@racquelperez7656]

My Dr missed me on this. She said she didn’t know what she was doing. What she needs to treat. You tell me when you half a half dead parasitic die off, its excruciating. At least clean up after meaning in my body that was never going to happen. Not even my specialists referred to by her confirmed the irritation but didnt know how to treat it. I begged her. She dont understand the broad spectrum she shouldnt have her liscense.

[@davidmbeckmann]

Vanco is used po or by enema, not IV for C. Diff.

[@andrewlee8146]

Hi Dr. Bolin, Do you have a website that has your tables in .pdf form? Your antibiotic sheet at 0:36 is awesome, but it's hard to see on a computer screen

[@pepichekbecker6550]

Andrew Lee Paul Bolin I would love to have a copy for quick reference!

[@beachbum4166]

It is common to see Cipro as the DOC for Pseudomonas. I commonly use both Cipro and Zosyn depending on the situation. In the clinic I would give Cipro. In the hospital I would give Zosyn, Cipro or Fortaz. Any input?

[@froglegs4910]

love your lecture very much but if use flash will be perfect for memory

[@rameazzam]

minute 25, Dr Bolin is that true that imipenem is not effective against pseudomonas?

[@doc-t-8648]

+ramez azzam Imipenem, Doripenem, and Meropenem are effective against Pseudomonas. Ertapenem is not.

[@joaosoares3719]

Where's Step 1?

[@eugene1221]

Hey great video, one thing I would mention is that vanco PO is the c diff treatment, not IV.

[@fandangosinfrio]

aztreonam isn't an aminoglycoside

[@pwbmd]

No, it's not. That's why I have it in parentheses; I grouped it in with the AGs because they're both primarily used for gram negative bugs and I didn't have enough room to make a special category for aztreonam. I should have probably clarified that though. Thanks for pointing it out.

[@fandangosinfrio]

Paul Bolin Thanks Paul. I really appreciate your videos. After 13 years working as a psychiatrist I have now to prepare a like-USMLE exam in Switzerland. It's so harsh but I remain optimistic! You repeat that aztreonam is an aminoglycoside at time 31:11 of the video!
