Can definitely be used for pink eye. My daughter (7) had pink eye and was prescribed for her. cleared up infection in the first dose though we continued to take all of rhe medication.
No its a derivate of fungi and is come under antibiotics which have cidal effect. It binds to small ribosomal subunit and interfere with protein synthesis by directly inhibiting synthesis. e.g. Neomycin, kanamycin, gentamicin. Its a broad spectrum drug
Gentamicin is pretty safe, I would go ahead as long as it's not expired. If you happen to live in Canada, you can get Polysporin eye drops which work as well or better.
It is not recommended to use Restasis eye drops and gentamicin drops at the same time without consulting a healthcare professional. This is because they may interact with each other and alter their effectiveness or cause adverse effects on the eyes. It is best to follow your healthcare provider's instructions for using these medications.
Vetrogen is a topical eye ointment which contains gentamycin sulfate (an antibiotic) which can be used to treat conjunctivitis caused by bacteria.
No, gentamicin is a cheap drug that has a record of poisoning 1 in 20-25 patients with permanent "oscillopsia" typified by NO BALANCE SYSTEM, blurry vision, shortened lifespan, depression. Do NOT use gentamin under ANY circumstances. Question your doctors personal knowledge of gentamicin if they suggest to use it....they are ignorant of slightly more expensive [about $USD3-4 more per shot/dosage] modern high tech medicines that superseded gentamicin 25 plus years ago. Third world countries are renowned for using cheap drugs for obvious reasons. Countries/hospitals in Western Countries like USA, Australia, Greece, Spain still use gentamicin as it is a cheap alternative in dollars [but an expensive alternative in health].
