Purpose: The development of two nomograms to predict dosing intervals for gentamicin in neonates based on one gentamicin concentration is described. Methods: Pooled data from three retrospective ...

Gentamicin sulfate 40mg/mL; IM, or IV inj after dilution; contains sulfites. Obesity: Base dose on lean body mass. Usual duration 7–10 days. 1mg/kg IM or IV every 8 hours; max 5mg/kg/day.

Gentamicin sulfate 0.3%; contains benzalkonium chloride. Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside, binds to the prokaryotic ribosome, inhibiting protein synthesis in susceptible bacteria. It is bactericidal ...

The data showed that the earlier the concentration was drawn, the more likely it was to result in an incorrect dosing interval according to the nomogram. The data from hours 6-12 that were ...
