NCLEX-RN Complete Prep Course — Lesson 70: Antibiotics, Antivirals, and Antifungals: Classes, Peak and Trough Levels, Superinfection, and Teaching

Sarah Mitchell walks through the anti-infective families by their signature warnings: penicillin and cephalosporin cross-sensitivity, culture before the first dose, aminoglycoside and vancomycin kidney and ear toxicity with peak and trough timing, fluoroquinolone tendon rupture, tetracycline teeth staining, metronidazole and alcohol, and clindamycin and C. difficile. She covers the four TB drugs, acyclovir, oseltamivir, HIV adherence, amphotericin B, nystatin, and superinfection, with scenarios on gentamicin toxicity and an Achilles rupture on levofloxacin.
