Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education for Health Care ProfessionalsAbout this episode
On this episode, I discuss how the tetracyclines impact bacterial protein synthesis. I also remind you of several medications that fall in the tetracycline class. Doxycycline is by far the medication I see used the most. You’ll also learn about common side effects like GI upset and photosensitivity. I cover why this class of medication is typically avoided in pediatrics and pregnancy. I hope you enjoy the show and don’t forget to snag your FREE 31 page PDF study guide!
