WK2 ASSIGNMENT HP-114

Pharmacology Medical Terminology Corner 

This week continue to explore medications that use a root word for the different groups under the broad category of antibiotics. While the base root does not hold true for every anti-infective group it does for many.

You can see from this chart that the root words: sulfa, oxacins, cillins, and mycins are not exact for each category. It is helpful, however, as the types are used for different pathological (disease-causing) organisms. 

Explore the organisms that antibiotics are used for. 

Include the following aspects in the assignment: 

  • Make a simple chart for each of the six categories of antibiotics in the chart 
  • Research each category and under each describe the specific type of organism each might be used for (gram-positive cocci, gram-negative bacillus, etc.) 
  • Include the illness that might be caused by the organism (gastroenteritis, pneumonia, skin infection) 
  • Cite any references. At all times proper grammar, sentence structure, and spelling. Copying and pasting are not allowed. Always use your own words View your assignment rubric.
