PHARMACOLOGY: GENTAMICIN: Gentamicin sulfate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic active against a wide variety of pathogenic gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. _In vitro_ tests have determined that gentamicin is bactericidal and acts by inhibiting normal protein synthesis in susceptible microorganisms. Specifically, gentamicin is active against the following organisms commonly isolated from canine ears: _Staphylococcus aureus,_ other _Staphylococcus_ spp., _Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus_ spp., and _Escherichia coli._ BETAMETHASONE: Betamethasone valerate is a synthetic adrenocorticoid for dermatologic use. Betamethasone, an analog of prednisolone, has a high degree of corticosteroid activity and a slight degree of mineralocorticosteroid activity. Betamethasone valerate, the 17-valerate ester of betamethasone, has been shown to provide anti-inflammatory and antipruritic activity in the topical management of corticosteroid-responsive otitis externa. Topical corticosteroids can be absorbed from normal, intact skin. Inflammation can increase percutaneous absorption. Once absorbed through the skin, topical corticosteroids are handled through pharmacokinetic pathways similar to systemically administered corticosteroids. CLOTRIMAZOLE: Clotrimazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent that is used for the treatment of dermal infec Perskaitykite visą dokumentą
