GlossaryGentamicin

antibiotic treating bacterial infections by inhibiting protein synthesis

Gentamicin, also known as Garamycin, is an antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, particularly those caused by Gram-negative bacteria.

This medication is often administered intravenously or intramuscularly and is commonly used in hospital settings for severe infections.
