Gentamicin is a heat-stable antibiotic, mainly used to treat bacterial infections, especially those caused by gram-negative bacteria, and is a commonly used aminoglycoside antibiotic. It is commonly used for sepsis, septicaemia, respiratory tract infections, peritonitis, biliary tract infections, genitourinary system infections, skin and soft tissue infections, and burn infections caused by sensitive bacteria. In addition, Gentamicin eye drops are indicated for conjunctivitis, keratitis, dacryocystitis and blepharitis caused by coagulase-negative and positive Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Gentamicin is more widely used in clinical practice.
