For some Gram-negative bacterial infections, antibiotic treatment can cause a more severe reaction than that caused by the base infection. This is often due to the release of endotoxin from the cell. Endotoxin, or LPS, is harmless in intact pathogens but can cause dangerously low blood pressure and high fever once released.

Which antibiotic here would you recommend against a bacterial pathogen that encodes LPS?

a) polymyxin, because it inserts into the cell membrane, disrupting homeostasis.

b) tetracycline, because it targets bacterial ribosomes.

c) vancomycin, because it disrupts cell wall formation.

d) ethambutol, because it interreupts arabinogalatcan.
