More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A complex of three different closely related aminoglycoside sulfates, Gentamicins C1, C2, and C1(subA), obtained from Micromonospora purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage. They act to inhibit protein synthesis (GENETIC TRANSLATION).     
Pharmacological Action Anti-Bacterial Agents; Protein Synthesis Inhibitors
Examples Sisomicin
Other names Gentamycin; Gentamicin Sulfate (USP); Gentacycol; Garamycin; G-Myticin; Gentavet; Sulfate, Gentamicin; G Myticin; Genticin; Gentamycins; Gentamicin Sulfate; Gentamicin; GMyticinDrugs* : APOGEN; U-GENCIN; GENOPTIC; GENTAFAIR; GARAMYCIN; GENTAMICIN; GENTACIDIN; GENTAK; GENTAMICIN SULFATE; PRED-G; BRISTAGEN; GENTAMICIN SULFATE IN SODIUM CHLORIDE 0.9% IN PLASTIC CONTAINER; ISOTONIC GENTAMICIN SULFATE IN PLASTIC CONTAINER
