Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic primarily used for the treatment of serious infections caused by susceptible strains of Gram-negative bacteria. It is commonly used for sepsis, respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, and intra-abdominal infections. Gentamicin is approved and widely used in clinical settings, particularly in hospitals.
Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic parameters reported for adult patients with normal renal function (mean age ~40 years, both sexes).
