ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Like other aminoglycosides, the bactericidal activity of tobramycin is
accomplished by specific
inhibition of normal protein synthesis in susceptible bacteria, but at
the present time, very little is
known about this action. It is thought that inhibition of synthesis is
due to an action on ribosomes
that, in turn, causes bacterial misreading of messenger RNA.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Pharmacodynamics
Because the ocular concentrations of tobramycin achieved after topical
application are higher
than those which can be safely used in systemic therapy, standardized
susceptibility tests may
not be appropriate to predict the effectiveness of tobramycin.
The gram positive bacteria against which tobramycin solution is
clinically effective include the
coagulase-positive and coagulase-negative staphylococci, including
penicillin-resistant strains,
_Streptococcus pneumoniae_, other alpha-hemolytic streptococci, and
Group A beta-hemolytic and
non-hemolytic streptococci. The gram-negative bacteria against which
tobramycin solution has
been shown to have clinical effectiveness include most strains of
_Pseudomonas aeruginosa, _
_Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Enterobacter aerogenes,
Proteus mirabilis_ (indole
negative) and indole-positive _Proteus_ species, as well as
_Haemophilus _spp., _Moraxella_ spp., and
_Acinetobacter calcoacetius (Herellea vaginicoli)._ Bacterial
susceptibility studies show that many
microorganisms resistant to gentamicin retain susceptibility to
tobramycin. A significant
population resistant to tobramycin has not emerged; however, bacterial
resistance may develop
upon prolonged use.
