  • Title: Gentamicin-carbenicillin synergy among gentamicin resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
    Author: Ryan RW, Kwasnik I, Lentnek A, Tilton RC.
    Journal: Ann Clin Lab Sci; 1982; 12(2):116-8. PubMed ID: 6803656.
    Abstract:
    Forty-five isolates of gentamicin resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa were evaluated for gentamicin-carbenicillin synergy. Only 9 percent (4/45) showed synergy. Of nine isolates with demonstrable zones around a gentamicin disc (8 to 12 mm), none showed a synergistic response. Effective treatment of gentamicin resistant Ps. aeruginosa with gentamicin and carbenicillin should not be assumed without additional test procedures.
