CORRECT ANSWER-4. A chart of the local resistance patterns to antibiotics
developed by laboratories
,There is often cross-sensitivity and cross-resistance between penicillins and
cephalosporins because:
1. Renal excretion is similar in both classes of drugs.
2. When these drug classes are metabolized in the liver they both produce resistant
enzymes.
3. Both drug classes contain a beta-lactam ring that is vulnerable to beta-lactamase-
producing organisms.
4. There is not an issue with cross-resistance between the penicillins and
cephalosporins. - CORRECT ANSWER-3. Both drug classes contain a beta-lactam
ring that is vulnerable to beta-lactamase-producing organisms.

antibiotic. He says the last time he had penicillin he developed a red, blotchy rash.

1. Assure that the drug will reach its intended target tissue
2. Are the reason for giving loading doses
3. Increase the length of time a drug is available and active
4. Are most common in collagen tissues - CORRECT ANSWER-3. Increase the
length of time a drug is available and active
Azithromycin dosing requires that the first day's dosage be twice those of the other
4 days of the prescription. This is considered a loading dose. A loading dose:
1. Rapidly achieves drug levels in the therapeutic range
2. Requires four- to five-half-lives to attain
3. Is influenced by renal function
4. Is directly related to the drug circulating to the target tissues - CORRECT
ANSWER-1. Rapidly achieves drug levels in the therapeutic range
