Amikacin is an antibiotic from the aminoglycoside group. It kills bacteria and is kept for serious infections. It is given as an injection into a muscle or as a drip into a vein, usually in hospital by doctors and nurses, although some people have it at home after being shown how. It can harm the kidneys, hearing and balance, so treatment is checked closely with tests. An inhaled form, breathed in through a nebuliser, is used for one type of lung infection and is started by specialists.
- Serious infections of the lungs and airways, such as pneumonia
- Serious urine and genital tract infections
- Serious tummy (abdominal and gut) infections, and infections after surgery
- Bone and joint infections
- Infections of the brain and spinal cord, including meningitis
- Skin and soft tissue infections, including infected burns
Get medical help straight away if
- Get emergency help for signs of a severe allergic reaction: swelling of the face, eyes, lips, tongue or throat, difficulty breathing or swallowing, hoarseness, hives or sudden dizziness.
- Get emergency help for trouble breathing, sudden muscle weakness or paralysis, or fits (seizures). Rarely amikacin can stop the muscles used for breathing from working.
- Tell your doctor or nurse straight away about any hearing loss, ringing or roaring in the ears, dizziness or loss of balance. Hearing loss caused by amikacin may be permanent.
- Passing much less urine, swelling of the face, arms, hands, feet, ankles or lower legs, or unusual tiredness or weakness. These can be signs of kidney damage.
