  • Title: [Aqueous humor levels of gentamicin after parenteral, subconjunctival and topical administration (aithor's transl)].
    Author: Utermann D, Matz K, Meyer K.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1977 Oct; 171(4):579-83. PubMed ID: 304116.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to determine the concentration of Gentamicin in blood serum and primary aqueous humor at varying periods of time after intravenous, intramuscular, subconjunctival and topical administration of Gentamicin. Therapeutic effective levels in primary aqueous humor were measured only after subconjunctival injections. The only broad spectrum antibiotics are the aminoglykosides Gentamicin, Tobramycin, Sisomicin and Amikacin. For prompt treatment of bacterial endophthalmitis without bacterial culture and antibiotic sensitivity testing therefore subconjunctival injection of Gentamicin is necessary.
