Product introduction
Genticyn
60mg Injection is an antibiotic used to prevent or treat a wide variety
of bacterial infections. This may include infections of the urinary
tract, bones and joints, lungs (e.g., pneumonia), brain (e.g.,
meningitis), sepsis, and some others. However, it is not effective for
gonorrhea.
Genticyn 60mg Injection is also widely used in
hospitalized patients to prevent infections. It works by stopping the
growth of bacteria. It is given as a drip (intravenous infusion) or as
an injection directly into a vein or a muscle under the supervision of a
healthcare professional. Your doctor may shift you to another
antibiotic after culture reports become available. It should be used
regularly at evenly spaced time intervals as prescribed by your doctor.
Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment even if
you feel better. Stopping the medicine too early may lead to the
infection returning or worsening.
This medicine may lead to
kidney damage and hearing loss as side effects in some patients.
Therefore, it is important to follow all the instructions given by your
doctor while using this medicine. It may also cause balance disorder
(loss of balance) and injection site pain in some people.
Your
doctor may monitor you with regular kidney function tests or hearing
tests during treatment. Some patients may also be advised to get blood
levels of this medicine measured. Before using this medicine, inform
your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become, or breastfeeding.
