Sitting from its 30s from visibles opinion position okay so it will prevent attachment of aminoacyl-trna sleep will even attachment of okay and some of the things we should be no knowing when we’re talking about your recyclin is that it is we should not be taking it with milk or antacid okay because it will bind to the tetracycline and we’re going to absorb it less

Because of diabete i should not be taken with diving and cations okay um anything else for mechanism of action i think i also miss that it’s iron containing compounds and antacids iron containing compounds and antacid okay all right let’s move on to the clinical use just a quick question what other drug in the in the microbe section does the same thing it will not

Allow divalent absorption that cation will will interfere with absorption it’s actually fluoroquinolone okay okay so let’s talk about the clinical use i’m sure you know the mnemonic for this when it’s vacuum the bedroom so v is for real it is for acne this one acne minocycline is used here bsc is for chlamydia face for canadian u is for your urea plasma neurolytic
