Description: Kanamycin Acid Sulfate is a salt form of kanamycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic derived from Streptomyces kanamyceticus. It is composed of kanamycin sulfate along with additional acidic groups. This salt form helps to enhance the stability and solubility of kanamycin.
Category: Antibiotic medication, specifically an aminoglycoside antibiotic.
Use: Kanamycin Acid Sulfate is used for the treatment of various bacterial infections caused by susceptible organisms, particularly gram-negative bacteria. It is effective against infections such as those caused by Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Dosage & Administration: The dosage and administration of Kanamycin Acid Sulfate are similar to kanamycin sulfate. It is typically administered parenterally (via injection) due to poor oral absorption. Dosage regimens should be determined by a healthcare professional based on factors such as the type and severity of the infection, the patient’s age, weight, renal function, and the specific susceptibility of the causative organism. Dosages should be adjusted as necessary based on clinical response and monitoring of serum drug levels to minimize the risk of toxicity.
Package Size: Kanamycin Acid Sulfate is available in various package sizes depending on the manufacturer and formulation. It is commonly supplied as a powder for reconstitution for injection. Package sizes can vary from single-dose vials or ampules to multi-dose vials for institutional use. The specific package size and concentration may vary based on the intended use and prescribing practices of healthcare providers.
