Ticarcillin in the treatment of experimental pseudomonas keratitis. 1977

A Ahmad, and G Smolin, and M Okumoto, and S Ohno

In rabbits with experimental Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis the subconjunctival administration of either ticarcillin or gentamicin significantly ameliorated the keratitis and reduced the number of organisms to be found in the cornea. The use of these drugs in combination had an additive effect in vitro studies and a significantly more beneficial effect on the clinical disease than the use of either drug alone.
