Description
Animal reproduction studies have shown an adverse effect on the fetus and there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in humans, but potential benefits may warrant use of the drug in pregnant women despite potential risks

Mode of Action

Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside that binds to 30s and 50s ribosomal subunits of susceptible bacteria disrupting protein synthesis, thus rendering the bacterial cell membrane defective.

Interaction

Additive effect w/ other neurotoxic and/or nephrotoxic drugs including cephalosporins, methicillin, amphotericin B, ciclosporin, cisplatin, potent diuretics (e.g. ethacrynic acid, furosemide) and neuromuscular blocking agents (e.g. succinylcholine, tubocurarine). May potentiate the effect of anticoagulants (e.g. warfarin, phenindione). May antagonise the effect of neostigmine and pyridostigmine. Increased risk of hypocalcaemia w/ bisphosphonates. Increased risk of neuromuscular blockade w/ botulinum toxin. Indometacin may increase the plasma concentration of gentamicin in neonates.
