No, gentamicin is a cheap drug that has a record of poisoning 1 in 20-25 patients with permanent "oscillopsia" typified by NO BALANCE SYSTEM, blurry vision, shortened lifespan, depression. Do NOT use gentamin under ANY circumstances. Question your doctors personal knowledge of gentamicin if they suggest to use it....they are ignorant of slightly more expensive [about $USD3-4 more per shot/dosage] modern high tech medicines that superseded gentamicin 25 plus years ago. Third world countries are renowned for using cheap drugs for obvious reasons. Countries/hospitals in Western Countries like USA, Australia, Greece, Spain still use gentamicin as it is a cheap alternative in dollars [but an expensive alternative in health].
