CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
GENTAMICIN, a wide spectrum antibiotic provides highly effective
topical treatment in primary and
secondary bacterial infections of the skin. This product may clear
infections that have not responded to
other topical antibiotic agents. In impetigo contagiosa and other
primary skin infections, treatment with a
small amount of GENTAMICIN OINTMENT AND CREAM three to four times
daily usually clears the
lesions promptly. In secondary skin infections, the product
facilitates the treatment of the underlying
dermatosis by controlling the infection. Bacteria susceptible to the
action of GENTAMICIN include
sensitive strains of streptococci (group A beta-hemolytic,
alpha-hemolytic), _Staphylococcus aureus_
(coagulase positive, coagulase negative, and some
penicillinase-producing strains), and the gram-
negative bacteria, _Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Aerobacter aerogens,
Escherichia coli, Proteus vulgaris and_
_Klebsiella pneumoniae_.
