Netilmicin

Sulfate is the active ingredient in netilmicin drug formulations.

Netilmicin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections, including:

Infections of the lungs (pneumonia)

Infections of the urinary tract

Infections of the skin and soft tissues

Infections of the abdomen

Sepsis (blood infection)

Netilcin 100mg Inj (Netilmicin) works by killing bacteria that cause infections. It does this by interfering with the bacteria's ability to produce proteins, which are essential for their survival.

Store netilmicin at room temperature, away from light and moisture. Do not freeze.

The dosage of netilmicin will depend on the type and severity of your infection, your age, and your kidney function.

Netilmicin is usually given by injection into a vein (intravenously) or into a muscle (intramuscularly).

The length of treatment with netilmicin will depend on your individual needs.

It is important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully and to complete the full course of treatment, even if you start to feel better.
