4.3 Drug Indication

Used to treat infections caused by susceptible Gram-positive bacteria, particularly beta-lactamase-producing organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus that would otherwise be resistant to most penicillins.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Meticillin (INN, BAN) or methicillin (USAN) is a narrow spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic of the penicillin class. It is no longer clinically used. Its role in therapy has been largely replaced by flucloxacillin and dicloxacillin, however the term methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) continues to be used to describe Staphylococcus aureus strains resistant to all penicillins.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Anti-Bacterial Agents

Substances that inhibit the growth or reproduction of BACTERIA. (See all compounds classified as Anti-Bacterial Agents.)


5.3 ATC Code

J - Antiinfectives for systemic use

J01 - Antibacterials for systemic use

J01C - Beta-lactam antibacterials, penicillins

J01CF - Beta-lactamase resistant penicillins

J01CF03 - Meticillin


5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Not absorbed following oral administration.


METHICILLIN IS NOT EMPLOYED BY ORAL ROUTE BECAUSE IT IS POORLY ABSORBED & READILY DESTROYED BY ACIDIC GASTRIC CONTENTS. WHEN DRUG IS GIVEN IM, PEAK PLASMA CONCN ARE REACHED IN ABOUT 30 MIN-1 HR. AFTER CONVENTIONAL DOSE OF 1 G IN ADULTS, PLASMA CONCN IN EXCESS OF 10 UG/ML ARE DEMONSTRABLE...

...2-G DOSE PROVIDES PEAK CONCN OVER 20 UG/ML, & APPROX 8 UG/ML IS STILL PRESENT AFTER 4 HR. ABOUT 40% OF METHICILLIN IN PLASMA IS BOUND TO PROTEIN. METHICILLIN DOES NOT READILY PENETRATE INTO CSF; HOWEVER, SIGNIFICANT CONCN ARE PRESENT IN PATIENTS WITH MENINGITIS... DRUG...WELL DISTRIBUTED IN VARIOUS BODY FLUIDS & TISSUES.

METHICILLIN IS EXCRETED UNCHANGED IN URINE...ABOUT 2/3 OF IM DOSE IS ELIMINATED BY THIS ROUTE IN 4 HR. ... METHICILLIN PERSISTS FOR LONG PERIOD & @ HIGH CONCN IN PLASMA IN CASES OF RENAL FAILURE. ... PORTION OF INJECTED METHICILLIN THAT CANNOT BE DETECTED IN URINE IS EXCRETED INTO BILE & IS ELIMINATED BY WAY OF FECES.

5.6 Biological Half-Life

25-60 minutes


The serum half-life of methicillin in adults with normal renal function is 0.4-0.5 hours.

McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service - Drug Information 95. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Hospital Pharmacists, Inc., 1995 (Plus Supplements 1995)., p. 268


Serum concn of methicillin may be higher and the serum half-life prolonged in patients with impaired renal function. The serum half-life of the drug reportedly averages 4-6 hr in anuric patients.

McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service - Drug Information 95. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Hospital Pharmacists, Inc., 1995 (Plus Supplements 1995)., p. 268


In one study in children 2-16 yr of age, the serum half-life of methicillin averaged 0.8 hr after IV administration and 1.6 hr after IM administration. Serum concn of methicillin are generally higher and the serum half-life is longer in neonates than in older children. The serum half-life of the drug is generally inversely proportional to birthweight, gestational age, and chronologic age. The serum half-life of methicillin reportedly ranges from 2-3.9 hr in low birthweight neonates 2 wk of age or younger and ranges from 0.9-3.3 hr in low birthweight neonates older than 2 wk of age or neonates weighing 2 kg or more who are 6.5 wk of age or younger.

5.7 Mechanism of Action

Similar to other beta-lactam antimicrobials, meticillin blocks synthesis of the bacterial cell wall. Meticillin stops cross-linkage between the peptidoglycan polymer chains, which make up a large portion of gram-positive bacterial cell walls. It does this by binding to and competitively inhibiting the transpeptidase enzyme used by bacteria to cross-link the peptide (D-alanyl-alanine) used in peptidogylcan synthesis.


The penicillins and their metabolites are potent immunogens because of their ability to combine with proteins and act as haptens for acute antibody-mediated reactions. The most frequent (about 95 percent) or "major" determinant of penicillin allergy is the penicilloyl determinant produced by opening the beta-lactam ring of the penicillin. This allows linkage of the penicillin to protein at the amide group. "Minor" determinants (less frequent) are the other metabolites formed, including native penicillin and penicilloic acids. /Penicillins/

Haddad, L.M., Clinical Management of Poisoning and Drug Overdose. 2nd ed. Philadelphia, PA: W.B. Saunders Co., 1990., p. 953


Bactericidal; inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis. Action is dependent on the ability of penicillins to reach and bind penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) located on the inner membrane of the bacterial cell wall. Penicillin-binding proteins (which include transpeptidases, carboxypeptidases, and endopeptidases) are enzymes that are involved in the terminal stages of assembling the bacterial cell wall and in reshaping the cell wall during growth and division. Penicillins bind to, and inactivate, penicillin-binding proteins, resulting in the weakening of the bacterial cell wall and lysis. /Penicillins/
