Miscellaneous Antibiotics

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Drug Interactions in Infectious Diseases: Antimicrobial Drug Interactions

Part of the book series: Infectious Disease ((ID))

Abstract

The chapter on miscellaneous antibiotics reviews the drug interactions with antibiotics such as chloramphenicol, tetracycline, and the aminoglycosides which are older agents that are less frequently prescribed, so many clinicians may not be familiar with their interactions with other medications. It also reviews the interactions with tigecycline and quinupristin-dalfopristin, two agents that are the only available agents from classes of antibiotics that are used clinically today. Many of the interactions reviewed such as with linezolid are based on single case reports or a limited series of patients. This chapter serves as a convenient resource for the drug interactions associated with these older antibiotics and as a compilation of the multiple case reports of drug interactions with antibiotics such as linezolid.
