Description
Gentamicin 0.1% Cream 15g is a topical antibiotic formulation used to treat a variety of bacterial skin infections. It is effective against Gram-negative and some Gram-positive bacteria, making it suitable for conditions such as infected wounds, burns, abrasions, and folliculitis. The active ingredient, gentamicin sulfate, inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit, leading to bacterial cell death.
This cream is formulated for external use and is designed to deliver the medication directly to the affected area. The 0.1% concentration provides adequate antimicrobial coverage while minimizing the risk of systemic absorption and associated side effects. The cream’s non-greasy texture ensures ease of application and rapid absorption, promoting effective treatment and user comfort.
Gentamicin cream is commonly used in both outpatient and clinical settings due to its efficacy and tolerability. It is often prescribed for localized infections where oral antibiotics are unnecessary or contraindicated. Regular application as directed by a healthcare provider helps reduce the bacterial load.
