Microbiology made ridiculously simple has a good section.

Unfortunately, until you see the drugs in use on daily basis learning them is a bit like trying to memorize a phonebook. Just keep hammering on it.

 

[TMP-SMX]

AT CELLS for ribosomal antibiotics

30S Aminoglycosides, Tetracyclines

50S Chloramphenicol, Erythromycin, Linezolid, cLindamycin, Streptogramin

Yup, CMMRS was awesome for providing different ways to get the antibiotics straight -- like 1st vs 2nd vs 3rd vs 4th Gen Cephalosporins, All the things Metronidazole does, etc.

I think I have an excel spreadsheet somewhere at home. PM me, and I can e-mail it to you if I have it. Also, Sanford guide is a pretty handy pocket sized antibiotic guide.

Here's a few antibiotic tables I found on my computer. They were given to me by someone else, and I haven't looked at them since I was an MS2, so take them with a grain of salt. Please post any mistakes you find so everyone can benefit.
