What is Kanamycin Sulfate?
Active Ingredients: Kanamycin Sulfate
Kanamycin Sulfate Injection is an antibiotic drug used to treat certain bacterial infections in animals such as cats, cows, dogs, goats, horses, poultry, sheep and pigs. It is indicated for the treatment of respiratory, intestinal, or urinary tract infections. Kanamycin is also used to treat infections like bacterial endocarditis, sepsis, and mastitis.
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.
Kanamycin Sulfate Injection is a colorless to light yellow or yellow-green transparent liquid.
