Gentamicin
An aminoglycoside antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections caused by gram-negative organisms, including infections of the respiratory tract, urinary tract, bloodstream, and other sites. It works by binding to bacterial ribosomes and inhibiting protein synthesis, leading to bacterial cell death. Due to risks of kidney damage and hearing loss, blood levels and kidney function require careful monitoring during treatment.
