ANTIBIOTICS CLASSIFICATION B-lactam class Penicillin Cephalosporins Carbapenems Nystatin Amphotericin B Polymyxin Chloramphenicol Tetracyclines Erythromycin Clindamycin Aminoglycosides Rifampicin Rifabutin Quinolones / ANTIBACTERIALS MECHANISM OF ACTION Inhibit the synthesis of Bacterial cell walls Trimethoprim Sulfonamides Acts directly on the cell membrane of the microorganism Agents that disrupt the function of 30s or 50s_ribosomal subunits to reversibly inhibit protein synthesis Bind to 30s ribosomal subunit and alter protein synthesis Affect bacterial nucleic acid metabolism which inhibits RNA polymerase Antimetabolites that block essential enzymes of folate metabolism
