Abstract
Twenty-three patients with acute peritonitis, intraabdominal abscess, wound infections (including infection of serious bums), sepsis accompanying renal transplantation, or urinary tract infection associated with cancer were treated with various dosage regimens of tobramycin, and their clinical responses were analyzed. For the conditions studied, the optimal regimen was 3 mg/kg per day in three divided doses. No clinical effectiveness was noted in this study for doses of ⩾4 mg/kg per day.Keywords
