DESCRIPTION: Gentamicin Sulfate with Betamethasone Valerate Otic
Solution is packaged in a
convenient plastic squeeze bottle for easy application. Each mL of
Gentamicin Sulfate with
Betamethasone Valerate Otic Solution contains gentamicin sulfate
equivalent to 3 mg gentamicin base,
betamethasone valerate equivalent to 1 mg betamethasone, 1.0 mg
hydroxyethylcellulose, 2.5 mg glacial
acetic acid, 200 mg purified water, 19% ethanol, 9.4 mg benzyl alcohol
as preservative, 300 mg
glycerin and propylene glycol q.s.
CHEMISTRY: Gentamicin is a bactericidal antibiotic of the
aminoglycoside group derived from
_Micromonospora_ _purpurea_ of the _Actinomyces_ group. It is a
powder, white to buff in color, basic in
nature, readily soluble in water and highly stable in solution.
Betamethasone valerate is a synthetic corticosteroid derivative of
prednisolone.
ACTION: Gentamicin Sulfate with Betamethasone Valerate Otic Solution
combines the broad-spectrum
activity of gentamicin sulfate with the anti-inflammatory and
antipruritic activity of betamethasone
valerate. _In vitro_ antibacterial activity has shown that gentamicin
is active against most gram-negative
bacteria including _Pseudomonas aeruginosa_, indole-positive and
negative _proteus sp_., _Escherichia coli_,
_Klebsiella pneumonia_e, _Aerobacter aerogenes_, and _Neisseria_.
Gentamicin is also active against strains of
gram-positive bacteria including _Staphylococcus_ species and some
_Streptococcus_ species.
Betamethasone valerate has emerged from intensive research as the most
promising of some 50 newly
synthesized corticosteroids in the experimental model described by
McKenzie et al. This human
bioassay technique has been found
