The Antibiotic Apocalypse Explained

I remember a patient, let's call him John, who was preparing for a specific type of bowel surgery. #antibiotic #bacterialinfection #guthealth #hepaticcoma #medicationsafety #Neomycintablets #sideeffects

Sometimes, an infection can really knock you off your feet. You’re feeling miserable, maybe a fever, and just… unwell. #acnetreatment #antibiotic #bacterialinfections #MinocyclineInjection #tetracycline

Why tetracycline should not be taken with antacids, milk and iron?

Milk and other dairy products, antacids containing polyvalent cations, and various iron salts form complexes with tetracycline derivatives, making them insoluble and poorly absorbable. This interaction can reduce the absorption of tetracyclines by 50 to 90%, or even more.

Side effects of sulfonamides
The main side effects of sulfa drugs are: allergies, effects on the central nervous system, blood disorders, crystalluria.

There’s a #new #antibiotic out there: #Lariocidin doesn't seeeeeem to be toxic to human cells, making it a super #promising candidate for new #medicines. This discovery is a GINORMOUSSS leap of hope in our battle against #superbugs. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/lucylawrence_i-know-i-say-alot-of-things-are-huge-activity-7325455540250189825-F4Je?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_ios&rcm=ACoAAACBLh8BKizVOxJMKKqeH-rrEMhwmUcweK4

#Japan launched a national plan to reduce #AntimicrobialResistance in 2016.

Data from 2012 to 2020 show a pretty clear, abrupt, and consistent reduction in overall and inappropriate #antibiotic #prescription corresponding to the launch.

Researchers from #Germany have isolated a novel #antibiotic named saarvienin A. The glycopeptide was obtained from an Amycolatopsis strain by Rolf Müller and his team and was described in the journal Angewandte Chemie. With a completely novel structure, it exhibits excellent antibiotic activity against Gram-positive bacteria and can overcome vancomycin resistance. However, cytotoxicity against eukaryotic cells has also been observed.

Apparently the #antimicrobialResistance community found #Buzzfeed.

Nearly 25% of this list about "#Health 'Lies'" is #AMR ranting. 🤣

PHORCE allows measurement of lytic #phage amplification rates in bacterial populations. This study uses PHORCE to reveal phenotypic diversity among #Ecoli & #Paeruginosa phages; phage- #antibiotic interactions are mainly determined by the drug @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/3G2myhf

This is so cool! Literally the project my students are doing in #microbiology this quarter, and it yielded a new CLASS of #antibiotic, which the world badly needs. #science #GoodNews https://healthsci.mcmaster.ca/a-breakthrough-moment-mcmaster-researchers-discover-new-class-of-antibiotics/

The last time a new class of antibiotics reached the market was nearly three decades ago—but that could soon change, thanks to a discovery by researchers at McMaster University.

New #antibiotic for multidrug resistant #superbug
Researchers from the universities in Konstanz and Vienna discover a new class of antibiotic that selectively targets Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the bacterium that causes #gonorrhoea.

Antibiotics cause damage of gut microbiome of human babies, which in turn reduces #vaccine efficacy. In the mouse model, vaccine efficacy after #antibiotic treatment can be restored with #probiotics. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-08796-4

New #antibiotic that kills #drugresistant #bacteria discovered in technician’s #garden
It targets bacteria’s protein-making factory, the #ribosome, in a way that other antibiotic drugs don’t. Ribosome is an attractive antibiotic target because bacteria don’t easily develop resistance to #drugs targeting the structure. In studies, #lariocidin slowed the growth of a range of common bacterial #pathogens, including many multidrug-resistant strains.
