[Aqueous humor levels of gentamicin after parenteral, subconjunctival and topical administration (aithor's transl)]. 1977

D Utermann, and K Matz, and K Meyer

The purpose of this study was to determine the concentration of Gentamicin in blood serum and primary aqueous humor at varying periods of time after intravenous, intramuscular, subconjunctival and topical administration of Gentamicin. Therapeutic effective levels in primary aqueous humor were measured only after subconjunctival injections. The only broad spectrum antibiotics are the aminoglykosides Gentamicin, Tobramycin, Sisomicin and Amikacin. For prompt treatment of bacterial endophthalmitis without bacterial culture and antibiotic sensitivity testing therefore subconjunctival injection of Gentamicin is necessary.

D000287 Administration, Topical The application of drug preparations to the surfaces of the body, especially the skin (ADMINISTRATION, CUTANEOUS) or mucous membranes. This method of treatment is used to avoid systemic side effects when high doses are required at a localized area or as an alternative systemic administration route, to avoid hepatic processing for example.
