Because of the unfused beta-lactam ring there is somewhat lower cross-reactivity between aztreonam and many other beta-lactam antibiotics, and it may be safe to administer aztreonam to many patients with hypersensitivity (allergies) to penicillins and nearly all cephalosporins. (wikipedia.org)
There is a much lower risk of cross-sensitivity between aztreonam and other beta-lactam antibiotics than within other beta-lactam antibiotics. (wikipedia.org)
Sometimes this and other apparent cross-reactions (eg, between sulfonamide antibiotics and nonantibiotics) are due to a predisposition to allergic reactions rather than to specific immune cross-reactivity. (merckmanuals.com)
The newer generation cephalosporin antibiotics have different R1-side chains making the cross-reactivity low and likelihood of allergic reaction even lower compared to some of the first generation agents and penicillin. (ebmconsult.com)
Many first- and second-generation cephalosporins have similar side-chains to penicillin antibiotics, thus increasing the chance of cross-sensitivity. (ebmconsult.com)
While up to 10% of patients may think they have an allergy to beta-lactam antibiotics, fewer than 1% have a true IgE-mediated hypersensitivity, with concomitant risk of anaphylaxis. (pemsource.org)
However, even if a true allergy is confirmed, this does not mean that the patient cannot receive any beta-lactam antibiotics. (pemsource.org)
A handy can be kept on your mobile phone delineating which antibiotics cross react. (pemsource.org)
Caution is advised when administering CAYSTON to patients if they have a history of allergy to beta-lactam antibiotics, such as penicillins, cephalosporins, and/or carbapenems, since cross-reactivity may occur. (caystonhcp.com)
Certain antibiotics (eg, cefoxitin, imipenem) may induce high levels of beta-lactamase in vitro in some Gram-negative aerobes such as Enterobacter and Pseudomonas species, resulting in antagonism to many beta-lactam antibiotics including aztreonam. (pfizermedicalinformation.com)
These in vitro findings suggest that such beta-lactamase inducing antibiotics not be used concurrently with aztreonam. (pfizermedicalinformation.com)

Here, we report the genomic characterization of an unusual Klebsiella pneumoniae, nonsusceptible to all 26 antibiotics tested, that was isolated from a U.S. PATIENT: The isolate harbored four known beta-lactamase genes, including plasmid-mediated blaNDM-1 and blaCMY-6, as well as chromosomal blaCTX-M-15 and blaSHV-28, which accounted for resistance to all beta-lactams tested. (cdc.gov)
A Klebsiella pneumoniae strain that was nonsusceptible to all tested antibiotics was isolated from a U.S. PATIENT: Mechanisms that could explain all observed phenotypic antimicrobial resistance phenotypes, including resistance to colistin and beta-lactams, were identified through whole-genome sequencing.

Cephalosporins5
Beta-lactamases are enzymes that hydrolyze amoxicillin and some, but not all, oral cephalosporins, leading to in-vitro resistance to these drugs. (medscape.com)
The similarity in structure of the R1-side-chains of penicillins and cephalosporins determines the likelihood of cross-sensitivity between the drug classes - not the presence of the beta-lactam ring. (ebmconsult.com)
2) Patients reporting a penicillin allergy are at an increased risk for cross-sensitivity to cephalosporins. (ebmconsult.com)
The structural similarities between penicillins and cephalosporins are the cause of the cross-reactivity between the two drug classes. (ebmconsult.com)
However, cross-reactivity between penicillin and cephalosporins can occur, so caution should be exercised. (kisanpvcpipes.com)

Penicillin3
When the penicillin side-chain is similar to either of the cephalosporin side-chains, the likelihood of cross-sensitivity increases. (ebmconsult.com)
The changing R1-side chains lowers the cross-reactivity and further lowers the chance for an allergic reaction in patients with reported penicillin allergy. (ebmconsult.com)
β-lactams inhibit the formation of peptidoglycan cross-links within bacterial cell walls by targeting penicillin-binding proteins or PBPs. (goldbio.com)
RESISTANCE4
The BETA-LACTAMASES hydrolyze the beta lactam ring, accounting for BETA-LACTAM RESISTANCE of infective bacteria. (lookformedical.com)
Each target gene could be reproducibly detected from a sample containing 10(3) cfu/mL of mcr-harboring bacteria, and there was no cross-reactivity with DNA extracted from several multidrug-resistant bacteria harboring other resistance genes, but lacking mcr genes. (cdc.gov)
This is one of the first K. pneumoniae isolates in the United States to have been reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as nonsusceptible to all drugs tested, including all beta-lactams, colistin, and tigecycline.IMPORTANCE Antimicrobial resistance is a major public health threat worldwide. (cdc.gov)
Strikingly, K-2157 displayed a resistome composed of ß-lactam resistance genes (blaSHV-190, blaTEM-1, blaOXA-9, and blaKPC-2), the fosfomycin resistance gene fosA, and the fluoroquinolones resistance genes oqxA and oqxB. (bvsalud.org)

(bvsalud.org)
Medical management of otitis media (OM) is actively debated in the medical literature, primarily because of a dramatic increase in acute OM (AOM) prevalence over the past 10 years caused by drug-resistant S pneumoniae (DRSP) and beta-lactamase-producing H influenzae or M catarrhalis .

Reactions4
How primary sensitization occurs and how the immune system is initially involved is unclear, but once a drug stimulates an immune response, cross-reactions with other drugs within and between drug classes can occur. (merckmanuals.com)
Noteworthy, almost all the previously reported Stetter reactions catalyzed by NHC involve electron-withdrawing olefins, the use of electron-rich olefins in NHC-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions is still very challenging. (cyberleninka.org)
As shown in Fig. 1, the reactions are proposed to be initiated by the nucleophilic attack of NHC to the aldehyde substrates yielding the well-known Breslow intermediate, which can then go through cross-coupling with substrate enamides and result into the final products. (cyberleninka.org)
