Description

Amikacin Sulfate Injection is a veterinarian-prescribed broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections in dogs, cats, and other animals. Effective against a wide range of gram-negative and some gram-positive bacteria, this injectable solution is commonly used for respiratory infections, skin infections, urinary tract infections, and post-surgical infections.
