Contraindication Notes:
Tobramycin is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any aminoglycoside.
Tobramycin interferes with bacterial protein synthesis by binding to 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits, resulting in a defective bacterial cell membrane.
Patients taking Tobramycin concomitantly with beta agonists, inhaled corticosteroids, other anti pseudomonal antibiotics or parenteral aminoglycosides demonstrated adverse experience profiles.
Inhaled Tobramycin is generally well-tolerated. Voice alterations and tinnitus are more common in the on-drug periods. However all the episodes are transient and resolved without discontinuation of the regimen. Others like dizziness and increase in serum creatinine were similar to those occurring with placebo.
Symptoms: Nephrotoxicity, auditory and vestibular toxicity (e.g. dizziness, tinnitus, vertigo, loss of high-tone hearing acuity), neuromuscular blockade or resp failure. Management: Initiate resuscitative measures if resp paralysis occurs. Ca salts may be given to reverse neuromuscular blockade. Haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis will help remove drug serum levels.
If you are a nursing mother, pregnant or want to become pregnant, ask your doctor about the possibility of Tobramycin causing any harm.
It should be used with care in patients with known or suspected renal, auditory, vestibular, or neuromuscular dysfunction. Patients receiving concomitant aminoglycoside therapy should be monitored as clinically appropriate. It must be used with caution in patients with ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Discuss the use of Tobramycin with your doctor if you have kidney problems or changes in hearing. Respirator Solution must only be used by inhalation from a nebulizer and must not be injected or swallowed.
Renal Impairment: Inhalation: Dosage adjustment needed.
