Gentamicin Sulfate Cream: Effective Topical Antibiotic for Skin Infections.

Gentamicin Sulfate Cream is a powerful topical antibiotic designed to treat a wide range of skin infections. This cream is particularly effective against primary and secondary bacterial infections, including impetigo contagiosa, superficial folliculitis, and ecthyma. It is also useful in treating infected skin cysts, abscesses, and other skin ulcers, as well as infected burns, paronychia, and wounds from minor surgery.

Gentamicin Sulfate Cream contains 0.1% gentamicin base in a cream base that includes isopropyl myristate, propylene glycol, propylene glycol monostearate, polysorbate 40, purified water, sorbitol solution, and stearic acid. It is preserved with butylparaben and methylparaben to ensure its effectiveness and stability.

This cream is bactericidal, meaning it kills bacteria directly, and is effective against a variety of bacterial strains, including Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococci, and gram-negative bacteria like Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It is not effective against viruses or fungi, making it a targeted solution for bacterial skin infections.

Gentamicin Sulfate Cream is typically applied 3 to 4 times daily to clear infections promptly. It is a reliable option for treating complex skin infections and can be used in conjunction with other treatments to enhance its effectiveness. Always follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider for optimal results and to minimize any potential side effects.
