Description The combination of amoxycillin and gentamicin acts synergistically against a wide range of infections caused by both Gram-positive (e.g. Staphylococcus, Streptococcus and Corynebacterium spp.) and Gram-negative (e.g. E.coli, Pasteurella, Salmonella and Pseudomonas spp.) bacteria in cattle and swine. Amoxycillin inhibits mainly in Gram-positive bacteria the cross-linkage between the linear peptidoglycan polymer chains that make up a major component of the cell wall. Gentamicin binds to the 30S subunit of the ribosome of mainly Gram-negative bacteria, thereby interrupting protein synthesis. Contra indications Hypersensitivity towards amoxycillin and/or gentamicin. Administration to animals with a seriously impaired hepatic and/or renal function. Concurrent administration of tetracyclines, chloramphenicol, macrolides and lincosamides. Concurrent administration of nephrotoxic and/or ototoxic preparations, intravenous calcium supplementation, iron supplementation and non-steroidal antiinflammatory preparations. Side effects Hypersensitivity reactions. Withdrawal times - For meat : 30 days. - For milk : 2 days. Packaging Vial of 100 ml.
