Our Gentamicin Injection (pediatric) Side Effects Drug Center provides a comprehensive view of available drug information on the potential side effects when taking this medication. WARNINGS Patients treated with aminoglycosides should be under close clinical observation because of the potential toxicity assoc...
Cochleotoxicity is an undesirable potential side effect of the treatment and the risk of hearing loss increases proportionately with gentamicin concentration in the cochlea. It has recently been shown that gentamicin is readily absorbed through the oval window in guinea pigs. The present study uses ...
Important potential side effects of gentamicin include ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. However, several studies have shown a reduced risk of these side effects if serum levels are monitored [9]. Baseline serum creatinine did not differ between the two subgroups, suggesting that it was not acute or ...
Serious side effects to mother, fetus, or newborn have not been reported in treatment of pregnant women with other aminoglycosides. If gentamicin is used during pregnancy or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking gentamicin, she should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus. ...
considered toxic if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. It may cause irritation to the respiratory system, skin, and eyes. The primary hazard is the potential for serious damage to the kidneys and hearing. Proper precautions should be taken to avoid exposure and contact with this...
Use with caution in patients with muscular disorders such as myasthenia gravis or parkinsonism since drugs used in these patients may aggravate muscle weakness because of their potential curare-like effect on the neuromuscular junction.Topical Instillation...
Antioxidants attenuate gentamicin-induced free radical formation in vitro and ototoxicity in vivo: D-methionine is a potential protectant. We have recently suggested antioxidant therapy against aminoglycoside-induced hearing loss based on the hypothesis of a redox-active aminoglycoside-iron co... SH Sha...
Revealing Sarcophyton extract's alleviating potential against gentamicin-induced renal and testicular toxicity in rat model Gentamicin (GEN) is a potent antibiotic known for inducing oxidative stress and causing adverse effects in the kidneys and testes. Sarcophyton species poss... Nada S. Badr,Aml ...
The positively charged ligands bind around the calcium binding site, which imposes a large negative surface potential on the CR domains driving the interaction. It has been firmly established that gentamicin accumulates in the epithelial cells of the proximal renal tubule or the cochlea of the inner...
If gentamicin is used during pregnancy or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking gentamicin, she should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus. Solutions containing sodium ions should be used with great care, if at all, in patients with congestive heart failure, severe renal ...
