What is Kanamycin Sulfate?
Active Ingredients: Kanamycin Sulfate
Kanamycin Sulfate Injection is used as an initial, short-term therapy for certain bacterial infections such as tuberculous of the lungs, sepsis, meningitis, and pneumonia. It is indicated for bacterial infections in the abdomen, biliary tract, urinary tract, skin or soft tissues, joints, or bones.
Kanamycin is classified as an aminoglycoside antibiotic. It works by interfering with protein synthesis within the bacteria cell. It is effective against strains of bacteria such as E. coli, Proteus species (both indole-positive and indole-negative), Enterobacter aerogenes, Klebsiella pneumonia, Serratia marcescens, and Acinetobacter species. Kanamycin is also an antidiarrheal and an anti-infective agent.
