Fosfomycin is an oral antibiotic taken as granules that dissolve in water. It is used to treat urinary tract infections, including kidney infections, by stopping bacteria from building their cell walls.
Imipenem and Cilastatin is a combination given by IV infusion for serious infections. Imipenem kills a wide range of bacteria, and cilastatin protects it from being broken down in the kidneys, allowing the drug to work longer.
Temocillin is an IV antibiotic used for infections caused by gram‑negative bacteria, especially those resistant to other drugs. It works by interfering with the bacteria’s cell wall formation.
Meropenem is a broad‑spectrum carbapenem antibiotic given intravenously for severe infections. It attacks many types of bacteria by preventing them from forming a proper cell wall.
Ciprofloxacin is an oral fluoroquinolone antibiotic that treats a variety of infections, including urinary and respiratory infections. It works by stopping bacteria from copying their DNA.
Levofloxacin is an oral fluoroquinolone used for respiratory, urinary, and skin infections. It kills bacteria by blocking the enzymes they need to replicate their DNA.
Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim is an oral combination (often called co‑trimoxazole) that treats many infections such as urinary tract infections. The two drugs work together to block the bacteria’s ability to make folic acid, which they need to grow.
Cefepime is an IV cephalosporin antibiotic with a broad range of activity. It is used for serious infections and works by weakening the bacterial cell wall.
Amikacin is an IV aminoglycoside antibiotic used for serious gram‑negative infections. It kills bacteria by disrupting the production of essential proteins.
Cefoxitin is an IV cephalosporin antibiotic used for mixed infections, including those involving anaerobic bacteria. It interferes with bacterial cell wall synthesis.
Amoxicillin is an oral penicillin‑type antibiotic commonly used for ear, throat, and urinary infections. It stops bacteria from building their cell walls.
Ofloxacin is an oral fluoroquinolone antibiotic that treats urinary and respiratory infections. It works by preventing bacterial DNA replication.
Ertapenem can be given intravenously, subcutaneously, or intramuscularly and is used for a wide range of infections. It belongs to the carbapenem class and disrupts bacterial cell wall formation.
Aztreonam is an IV monobactam antibiotic that targets gram‑negative bacteria, including those resistant to other drugs. It works by weakening the bacterial cell wall.
Cefotaxime is an IV cephalosporin used for many types of infections, such as those of the lungs, urinary tract, and abdomen. It kills bacteria by damaging their cell walls.
Ceftazidime is an IV cephalosporin especially effective against Pseudomonas and other gram‑negative bacteria. It disrupts the formation of the bacterial cell wall.
Amoxicillin and Beta‑lactamase inhibitor is an oral combination (amoxicillin with clavulanic acid) that expands the range of bacteria the drug can treat. The inhibitor protects amoxicillin from being destroyed by bacterial enzymes.
Gentamicin is an IV aminoglycoside antibiotic used for serious infections, often in combination with other drugs. It kills bacteria by interfering with protein production.
Ceftriaxone is an IV or intramuscular cephalosporin antibiotic widely used for many infections, including meningitis and pneumonia. It works by weakening the bacterial cell wall.
Piperacillin and Beta‑lactamase inhibitor is an IV combination (piperacillin with tazobactam) that provides broad coverage, including Pseudomonas. The inhibitor protects piperacillin from bacterial enzymes, allowing it to kill a wider range of bacteria.
