    Pharmacodynamics:
    Tobramycin is an antibiotic from the aminoglycoside group that exhibits in vitro activity against sensitive strains of the following bacteria: Pseudomonas aeruginosa,
    Escherichia coli,
    Klebsiella pneumoniae,
    Enterobacter aerogenes,
    Proteus mirabilis (indolpositive and indolotricative strains),
    Proteus species,
    Haemophilus influenzae and H. aegyptius,
    Moraxella lacunata,
    Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (Herellea vaginacola), some strains of Neisseria spp.,
    Staphylococcus - S. aureus and S. epidermidis (coagulase-positive and coagulase-negative strains),
    including strains resistant to penicillin, some bacteria of the genus Streptococcus (resistant species may appear).
    It has been established that in some cases microorganisms resistant to gentamicin remain sensitive to tobramycin.

    Pharmacokinetics:
    After instillation into the conjunctival sac, only a small amount of tobramycin penetrates the cornea.

    Indications:
    Indications for use
    Treatment of external infections of the eye and its appendages caused by strains of bacteria sensitive to tobramycin, especially strains resistant to most other antibiotics, mainly Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

    Contraindications:
    Hypersensitivity to tobramycin or any of the components of the drug; children age up to 2 months.

    Carefully:
    The drug is not intended for intraocular injection.
    Prolonged local application of tobramycin can lead to excessive development of resistant microorganisms, including fungi.Therefore, it is recommended to carry out bacterial culture before the beginning of treatment and after its completion in case of unsatisfactory effectiveness. If a secondary infection is found, appropriate treatment is necessary.
    Some patients may experience a hypersensitivity reaction (allergy) in the form of edema, tingling, congestion hyperemia. In this case, it is necessary to stop using the medication and consult a doctor.

    Pregnancy and lactation:

    Dosing and Administration:
    Infections with mild course: usually 1 or 2 drops in the conjunctival sac every 4 hours.
    Infections with severe course: usually 2 drops in the conjunctival sac at intervals of one hour until the improvement is achieved, after which, before the drug is discontinued, the dose should be gradually reduced.
    The duration of treatment with the drug is usually 6-8 days.
    Tobramycin can be used in the treatment of eye (eye) infections in children.

    Before instillation of the drug should be thoroughly washed hands. Remove the lid and inject the medication into the conjunctival sac. If the drop does not hit the conjunctival sac, the next drop should be dripped. Carefully close eyelids without blinking or opening your eyes for about 2 minutes to allow the drug to absorb. Then wash your hands to remove the remnants of the drug and close the bottle.

    Side effects:
    Undesirable effects are characteristic of antibiotics from the aminoglycoside group and include local toxic effects and reactionshypersensitivity (swelling, tingling, congestion hyperemia).

    Overdose:
    When an overdose of the drug can develop clinical symptoms: spot keratitis, hyperemia, increased lacrimation, edema, itchy eyelids. In case of an overdose, it is necessary to wash the eyes (eye) with a sterile warm isotonic (0.9%) sodium chloride solution.

    Interaction:
    In case of simultaneous topical application of tobramycin and other aminoglycosides of systemic action to ensure maintenance of the necessary therapeutic concentrations, it is necessary to control their total concentration in the blood serum.
    In the case of parallel application of other ophthalmic drugs, an interval of at least 10 minutes between the instillation of the two drugs should be observed.

    Special instructions:
    The drug product TobroSpt® contains as a preservative benzalkonium chloride, so patients who wear soft (hydrophilic) contact lenses should remove them before instilling eye drops and wait at least 15 minutes before inserting them again.
