Gentamicin injection is in a class of drugs called aminoglycoside antibiotics. It works by killing bacteria. Gentamicin is indicated for the following conditions: 1. Gastrointestinal infections. 2. Genitourinary infections and kidney infections. 3. Septicemia. 4. Peritonitis or pelvic infections. 5. Intra-abdominal infections. 6. Skin, soft tissue, and bone infections. 7. Eye infections. 8. Infected wounds and burns. 9. Bone and joint infections. In these conditions, there must be suspicion or certainty that the causative germ is a gram-negative bacterium such as Pseudomona aeruginosa, E. coli, Proteus, Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Serratia, Citrobacter, Staphylococcus (coagulase-positive or coagulase-negative) or Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Gentamicin has been used effectively when associated with carbenicillin for serious infections caused by Pseudomona aeruginosa.
