Rx Gentamicin 0.3% solution x 5ml bottle
Gentocin Ophthalmic Solution is indicated for the treatment of external bacterial infections of the eye and surrounding tissues such as conjunctiva, cornea and eyelids of dogs and cats. Such bacterial infections, caused by organisms sensitive to gentamicin, include conjunctivitis, keratitis, keratoconjunctivitis, and superficial corneal ulcers of bacterial origin.
Recommended dosages only. Always follow the directions for dosing and administration from your veterinarian.
One or two drops of the solution may be instilled into the conjunctival sac three or four times a day (and less often at night) until a favorable response is obtained. Thereafter, the dosage may be reduced gradually. This is important in chronic conditions. A transient stinging sensation common to many ophthalmic preparations may sometimes occur but usually does not require cessation of the treatment.
Ocular re-examinations should be made at frequent intervals, particularly during long-term therapy.
