Because the oral aminoglycosides are poorly absorbed, they are useful to suppressing gastrointestinal bacteria The oral aminoglycosides kanamycin (Kantrex) and neomycin (Mycifradin) are used preoperatively to reduce the number of bacteria normally present in the intestine (bowel prep). A reduction in intestinal bacteria is thought to lessen the possibility of abdominal infection that may occur after surgery on the bowel. [Pg.94]

Adverse reactions to penicillins are rare diarrhoea can occur due to alteration in normal gastrointestinal bacteria. In fact, penicillins are probably the least toxic drugs known. Hypersensitivity reactions to penicillins occur in up to 10% of patients and vary from mild skin rashes to exfoliative dermatitis and Stevens-Johnson syndrome (immune vasculitis with arthritis, nephritis, central nervous system abnormalities and myocarditis) and from bronchoconstriction to life-threatening anaphylactic shock. [Pg.159]

Decarboxylation and reduction to ethanol. This is the pathway of fermentation in yeast, which is exploited to produce alcoholic beverages. Human gastrointestinal bacteria normally produce lactate rather than ethanol, although there have been reports of people with a high intestinal population of yeasts that do produce significant amounts of ethanol after consumption of resistant starch (section 4.2.2.1). [Pg.139]
