  • Ceftazidime for Injection) PHARMACY BULK PACKAGE – NOT for DIRECT INFUSION
    PRESCRIBING INFORMATION FORTAZ® (ceftazidime for injection) PHARMACY BULK PACKAGE – NOT FOR DIRECT INFUSION To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of FORTAZ and other antibacterial drugs, FORTAZ should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria. DESCRIPTION Ceftazidime is a semisynthetic, broad-spectrum, beta-lactam antibacterial drug for parenteral administration. It is the pentahydrate of pyridinium, 1-[[7-[[(2-amino-4­ thiazolyl)[(1-carboxy-1-methylethoxy)imino]acetyl]amino]-2-carboxy-8-oxo-5-thia-1­ azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-en-3-yl]methyl]-, hydroxide, inner salt, [6R-[6α,7β(Z)]]. It has the following structure: The molecular formula is C22H32N6O12S2, representing a molecular weight of 636.6. FORTAZ is a sterile, dry-powdered mixture of ceftazidime pentahydrate and sodium carbonate. The sodium carbonate at a concentration of 118 mg/g of ceftazidime activity has been admixed to facilitate dissolution. The total sodium content of the mixture is approximately 54 mg (2.3 mEq)/g of ceftazidime activity. The Pharmacy Bulk Package vial contains 709 mg of sodium carbonate. The sodium content is approximately 54 mg (2.3mEq) per gram of ceftazidime. FORTAZ in sterile crystalline form is supplied in Pharmacy Bulk Packages equivalent to 6g of anhydrous ceftazidime. The Pharmacy Bulk Package bottle is a container of sterile preparation for parenteral use that contains many single doses. The contents are intended for use in a pharmacy admixture program and are restricted to the preparation of admixtures for intravenous use. THE PHARMACY BULK PACKAGE IS NOT FOR DIRECT INFUSION, FURTHER DILUTION IS REQUIRED BEFORE USE.

Pos 1 Gram-negative bacteria maintain an intrinsic resistance mechanism against entry of noxious compounds by utilizing highly efficient efflux pumps. The E. coli AcrAB-TolC drug efflux pump + 1234567890():,; contains the inner membrane H /drug antiporter AcrB comprising three functionally inter- dependent protomers, cycling consecutively through the loose (L), tight (T) and open (O) state during cooperative catalysis. Here, we present 13 X-ray structures of AcrB in inter- mediate states of the transport cycle. Structure-based mutational analysis combined with drug susceptibility assays indicate that drugs are guided through dedicated transport chan- nels toward the drug binding pockets. A co-structure obtained in the combined presence of erythromycin, linezolid, oxacillin and fusidic acid shows binding of fusidic acid deeply inside the T protomer transmembrane domain. Thiol cross-link substrate protection assays indicate that this transmembrane domain-binding site can also accommodate oxacillin or novobiocin but not erythromycin or linezolid. AcrB-mediated drug transport is suggested to be allos- terically modulated in presence of multiple drugs. 1 Institute of Biochemistry, Goethe-University Frankfurt, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. 2 Sosei Heptares, Steinmetz Building, Granta Park, Great Abington, Cambridge, UK. 3Present

  • We Have Reported That the Antibiotics Chloramphenicol, Lincomycin
    THE BIOGENESIS OF MITOCHONDRIA, V. CYTOPLASMIC INHERITANCE OF ERYTHROMYCIN RESISTANCE IN SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE* BY ANTHONY W. LINNANE, G. W. SAUNDERS, ELLIOT B. GINGOLD, AND H. B. LUKINS BIOCHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT, MONASH UNIVERSITY, CLAYTON, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA Communicated by David E. Green, December 26, 1967 The recognition and study of respiratory-deficient mutants of yeast has been of fundamental importance in contributing to our knowledge of the genetic control of the formation of mitochondria. From these studies it has been recognized that cytoplasmic genetic determinants as well as chromosomal genes are involved in the biogenesis of yeast mitochondria.1' 2 Following the recog- nition of the occurrence of mitochondrial DNA,3 4 attention has recently been focused on the relationship between mitochondrial DNA and the cytoplasmic determinant.' However, the information on this latter subject is limited and is derived from the study of a single class of mutant of this determinant, the re- spiratory-deficient cytoplasmic petite. This irreversible mutation is pheno- typically characterized by the inability of the cell to form a number of compo- nents of the respiratory system, including cytochromes a, a3, b, and c1.6 A clearer understanding of the role of cytoplasmic determinants in mitochondrial bio- genesis, could result from the characterization of new types of cytoplasmic mutations which do not result in such extensive biochemical changes. This would thus simplify the biochemical analyses as well as providing additional cytoplasmic markers to assist further genetic studies. We have reported that the antibiotics chloramphenicol, lincomycin, and the macrolides erythromycin, carbomycin, spiramycin, and oleandomycin selec- tively inhibit in vitro amino acid incorporation by yeast mitochondria, while not affecting the yeast cytoplasmic ribosomal system.7' 8 Further, these antibiotics do not affect the growth of S.

Danish copyright law restricts all other use without written permission of the publisher. Exception is granted for short excerpts for review purposes. iv Foreword The first edition of the Antibiotic Use Guidelines for Companion Animal Practice was published in autumn of 2012. The aim of the guidelines was to prevent increased antibiotic resistance. A questionnaire circulated to Danish veterinarians in 2015 (Jessen et al., DVT 10, 2016) indicated that the guidelines were well received, and particularly that active users had followed the recommendations. Despite a positive reception and the results of this survey, the actual quantity of antibiotics used is probably a better indicator of the effect of the first guidelines. Chapter two of these updated guidelines therefore details the pattern of developments in antibiotic use, as reported in DANMAP 2016 (www.danmap.org).
