Study this Macrolides NCLEX Pharmacology mnemonic and other mnemonics with Pixorize.
Macrolides are drugs recognizable by their common ending of “-thromycin”, including erythromycin, azithromycin, and clarithromycin. Macrolides are antibiotics and can be used clinically to treat a wide spectrum of bacterial infections. Macrolides have the potential to cause QT prolongation, which could lead to the potentially fatal torsades de pointes, so keep an eye on the patient’s cardiac rhythm. Another side effect of taking macrolides is GI distress. Macrolides are hepatotoxic, meaning they can cause liver damage. Closely monitor the patient’s liver enzymes while they are taking the drug.

I was told to not take this drug with food. Just a full glass of water will do to avoid GI upset

We have to memorize which antibiotics are bacteriostatic versus bactericidal. So saying that macroglides kill bacteria is confusing

@ErikaGarcia-xv9sd 2 жыл бұрын

how is it confusing? Bacteriostatic kill bacteria and bacteriostatic prevents growth.

@jasminedurden5091 2 жыл бұрын

@@ErikaGarcia-xv9sd The video says that macrolides kill bacteria, implying that they bactericidal. They are however bacteriostatic, inhibiting growth.

@@jasminedurden5091 the bacteria does eventually die tho due to being inhibited from growth or anything else. They don’t stay in the body alive forever. Bacteria static and bactericidal both cause bacterial death just in diff ways.

@@ErikaGarcia-xv9sd i was told that it is bacteriostatic=supressing growth....when given in high doses it is bactericidal=immediate death

So NCLEX is for nursing and USMLE is for doctor. I went to nursing school and passed the NCLEX im now in med school. The content taught here is more than you need to know for the NCLEX lol. U really just need to know thomycin is suffik and gi upset for the NCLEX. The content here is good enough for medschool. As this is what my professors covered in med school now.
