A member asked:
I'm having weekly injections of gentamicin for kidney infection, but still can't get rid of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pyelonephritis: If you are only taking gentamicin once a week you probably have significant impairment of renal function, in which case this is a very complex issue and may require input from an infectious diseases expert who can see and examine you and has access to your records. Good luck
