Indications:Gentamicin injection is indicated for the following conditions, when caused by susceptible organisms;
1. Urinary tract infections; (Not indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infections).
2. Systemic infections, e.g. Septicaemia, peritonitis;
3. Bone and soft-tissue infections, e.g. osteomyelitis, wound and soft-tissue infections;
4. Infected burns;
5. Infections of the respiratory tract e.g. Pneumonia.
Contra-indications:
Hypersensitivity to gentamicin is a contraindication to its use. A history of hypersensitivity or serious toxic reactions to other aminoglycosides may contraindicate use of gentamicin because of the known cross-sensitivity of patients to drugs in this class.
Drug Interactions:
Some affected drugs include: amikacin, tobramycin, amphotericin B, cidofovir, cisplatin, polymyxin B, cephalosporins such as cephaloridine, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, "water pills"/diuretics such as furosemide, among others. Although most antibiotics probably do not affect hormonal birth control such as pills, patch, or ring, some antibiotics may decrease their effectiveness.
Treatment/antidote in The Event of Overdose:
In the event of overdose or toxic reactions, hemodialysis may aid in the removal of gentamicin from the blood, especially if renal function is, or becomes, compromised. The rate of removal of gentamicin is considerably lower by peritoneal dialysis than it is by hemodialysis.
Storage instructions:
Store below 25ºC. Protect from moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
