gentamicin and Emergencies

gentamicin has been researched along with Emergencies in 23 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.

Emergencies: Situations or conditions requiring immediate intervention to avoid serious adverse results.
