4. There is often cross-sensitivity and cross-resistance between penicillins and
cephalosporins because:
1. Renal excretion is similar in both classes of drugs.

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.

, 7. Pong-tai is a 12-month-old child who is being treated with amoxicillin for acute
otitis media. His parents call the clinic and say he has developed diarrhea. The
appropriate action would be to:
1. Advise the parents that some diarrhea is normal with amoxicillin and

recommend probiotics daily.
2. Change the antibiotic to one that is less of a gastrointestinal irritant.

3. Order stool cultures for suspected viral pathogens not treated by the amoxicillin.

4. Recommend increased fluids and fiber in his diet.

8. Lauren is a 13-year-old child who comes to clinic with a 4-day history of cough,
low-grade fever, and rhinorrhea. When she blows her nose or coughs the mucous
is greenish-yellow. The appropriate antibiotic to prescribe would be:
1. Amoxicillin

2. Amoxicillin/clavulanate

3. TMP/SMZ (Septra)

4. None

9. Joanna had a small ventricle septal defect (VSD) repaired when she was 3 years old
and has no residual cardiac problems. She is now 28 and is requesting prophylactic
antibiotics for an upcoming dental visit. The appropriate antibiotic to prescribe
according to current American College of Cardiology and American Heart
Association guidelines is:
1. None, no antibiotic is required for dental procedures

2. Amoxicillin 2 grams 1 hour before the procedure
