Contact lenses should not be worn during treatment with Gentamicin-POS.
Prolonged use of topical antibiotics may give rise to overgrowth of nonsusceplible organisms including fungi. Bacterial resistance to gentamicin may also develop. If purulent discharge, inflammation or pain becomes aggravated, the patient should discontinue use of medication and consult a physician. If irritation or hypersensitivity to any component of the drug develops, the patient should discontinue the use of this preparation and appropriate therapy should be instituted.
Safety and effectiveness for use of Gentamicin-POS eye drops in children less than six years of age have not been established.
Use in Pregnancy & Lactation: Even though no risk was observed in humans after ophthalmological use of Gentamicin-POS eye drops, a very careful benefit-risk analysis by the physician should justify the application of the drug, especially in the first three months of pregnancy.
