$ 28,41

Indicated in equines, canines and felines, in all infections of the respiratory, digestive, genitourinary and osteoarticular systems caused by Gram + and Gram – bacteria sensitive to amikacin.

Benefits
Similar action to gentamicin.
Amikacin resists aminoglycoside inactivating enzymes known to affect gentamicin, tobramycin, kanamycin.
Several gentamicin-resistant strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus, and Serratia are susceptible.

Description:

Broad spectrum antibiotic. Amikacin is a semi-synthetic aminoglycoside antibiotic derived from kanamycin.

Composition:
Each 100 ml contains:
Amikacin 21 g

Therapeutic Action:
The spectrum of action of Amikacin includes numerous Gram-aerobes and some Gram + aerobes.
Gram negative: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Proteus species (indole-positive and indole-negative), Pseudomonas, Salmonella, Enterobacter, Serratia and Shigella.
Gram positive: penicillinase-producing and non-producing Staphylococcus species, including methicillin-resistant strains. However, amikacin is not very active against other gram positives: Streptococcus pyogenes, enterococci and Streptococcus pneumoniae (Diplococcus pneumoniae).
Amikacin resists degradation caused by most aminoglycoside inactivating enzymes known to affect gentamicin, tobramycin, kanamycin. Several gentamicin-resistant strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus, and Serratia are sensitive to amikacin.
