Pneumonia due to Streptococcus

Approved treatments

• Tygacil · Fresenius Kabi
  Tygacil works by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit of bacteria, preventing the aminoacyl-tRNA from binding and thereby inhibiting protein synthesis.
• Cefradex · Bristol-Myers Squibb
• Cefaprin · Bristol-Myers Squibb
• Amoxycillin · King George's Medical University
• Penicillin G Potassium In Plastic Container · Pfizer
• Ancef In Sodium Chloride 0.9% In Plastic Container · GSK
• Ancef In Sodium Chloride 0.9% In Plastic Container · GSK
  Cefazolin is an antibacterial drug that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis.
• Cleocin T · Pfizer
  Cleocin T works by inhibiting protein synthesis in bacteria, preventing them from producing essential proteins and ultimately leading to cell death.
• Maxipime · Baxter
  Cefepime is a cephalosporin antibacterial drug.
• Claforan · Sterimax
• Unasyn · Bristol-Myers Squibb
• Cleocin · Generic (originally Upjohn/Pfizer)
  Lincosamide antibiotic that binds the 50S ribosomal subunit, inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis with excellent anaerobic coverage.
• Avelox · Bayer AG
  Fourth-generation fluoroquinolone with the broadest spectrum, covering gram-positive, gram-negative, anaerobic, and atypical organisms.
• Ceclor
• Ceftin · GSK
  Ceftin works by inhibiting the bacterial enzyme responsible for cell wall synthesis, ultimately leading to bacterial cell death.
• Maxipime · Baxter
  Cefepime is a cephalosporin antibacterial drug that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis.
• Amoxil · Generic (originally Beecham/GSK)
  Broad-spectrum aminopenicillin that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding penicillin-binding proteins.
• Cefepim · University Hospital Tuebingen
• Ciprofloxacine · Poitiers University Hospital
• Tygacil · Pfizer
  Tigecycline is a tetracycline class antibacterial agent.
• Cefadole
  Cefadole works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, ultimately leading to bacterial cell death.

• Primaxin · Merck Sharp & Dohme B.V.
  Primaxin works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, ultimately leading to bacterial cell death.
• Fortaz · Pai Holdings Pharm
  Fortaz works by binding to penicillin-binding proteins on bacterial cell walls, preventing them from forming a strong cell wall and ultimately leading to bacterial cell death.
• Mefoxin In Sodium Chloride 0.9% In Plastic Container
• Monocid
• Omnicef
• Vantin
• Cefotan
• Primaxin · Merck & Co.
  Primaxin works by inhibiting the action of dehydropeptidase, an enzyme that breaks down certain antibiotics, thereby protecting them from degradation and allowing them to reach effective concentrations in the body.
• Cephalotin · Eli Lilly
• Keflex · Shionogi
• Bicillin C-R · Pfizer
  Bicillin C-R works by binding to penicillin-binding proteins on bacterial cell walls, preventing them from forming a strong cell wall and ultimately leading to bacterial cell death.
• Sparcin
• Zinacef · GSK
  Zinacef works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, ultimately leading to bacterial cell death.
• Zyvox · Pfizer
  Zyvox works by inhibiting the bacterial protein synthesis initiation complex, preventing the growth and replication of Gram-positive bacteria.
• Fortaz · Pai Holdings Pharm
  Bactericidal agent inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis with beta-lactamase resistance.
