gentamicin and Empyema

gentamicin has been researched along with Empyema in 22 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.

Empyema: Presence of pus in a hollow organ or body cavity.
