gentamicin and Drug Overdose

gentamicin has been researched along with Drug Overdose in 10 studies

Gentamicins: A complex of closely related aminoglycosides obtained from MICROMONOSPORA purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage. They act to inhibit PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS.

Drug Overdose: Accidental or deliberate use of a medication or street drug in excess of normal dosage.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A 65-year-old man with end-stage renal disease on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis accidentally received an acute massive overdose of gentamicin as a treatment of peritonitis."3.69Acute massive gentamicin intoxication in a patient with end-stage renal disease. ( James, SH; Lien, YH; Lu, CM, 1996)
"Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside that is widely used in neonatology in spite of its known nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity."1.35[Gentamicin intoxication in a preterm infant]. ( Butenhoff, S; Haase, R; Lieser, U; Merkel, N, 2009)
" These patients would consequently be expected to be more susceptible to cochleotoxicity, a recognized side effect with single courses of aminoglycoside therapy."1.31Occurrence and risk of cochleotoxicity in cystic fibrosis patients receiving repeated high-dose aminoglycoside therapy. ( Burr, S; Degg, C; Morgan, DW; Mulheran, M; Stableforth, DE, 2001)
