gentamicin and Weight Gain

gentamicin has been researched along with Weight Gain in 6 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.

Weight Gain: Increase in BODY WEIGHT over existing weight.

( Angelakis, E; Casalta, JP; Habib, G; Raoult, D; Richet, H; Thuny, F, 2010)
