Tobramycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic obtained from cultures of Streptomyces tenebrarius, it is effective against gram-negative bacteria, especially the pseudomonas species. Tobramycin is used in combination with other antibiotics to treat urinary tract infections, gynecologic infections, peritonitis, endocarditis, pneumonia, bacteremia and sepsis, respiratory infections including those associated with cystic fibrosis, osteomyelitis, and diabetic foot and other soft-tissue infections. It acts primarily by disrupting protein synthesis, leading to altered cell membrane permeability, progressive disruption of the cell envelope, and eventual cell death. Tobramycin has in vitro activity against a wide range of gram-negative organisms including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Tobramycin binds irreversibly to one of two aminoglycoside binding sites on the 30 S ribosomal subunit, inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. Tobramycin may also destabilize bacterial memebrane by binding to 16 S 16 S r-RNA. An active transport mechanism for aminoglycoside uptake is necessary in the bacteria in order to attain a significant intracellular concentration of tobramycin. KITABIS PAK (co-packaging of tobramycin inhalation solution and PARI LC PLUS Reusable Nebulizer) is indicated for the management of cystic fibrosis in adults and pediatric patients 6 years of age and older with P. aeruginosa.

In Vivo Use Guide
Curator's Comment: Tobramycin does not pass the gastro-intestinal tract, so for systemic use it can only be given intravenously or intramuscularly http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2011/063111s014lbl.pdf. Dosage is different for different infections. Ophthalmic route of administration is also possible, as indicated here http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/drugsatfda/index.cfm?fuseaction=Search.DrugDetails or for TOBREX http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2012/050541s024lbl.pdf
KITABIS PAK is a co-packaging of tobramycin inhalation solution ampules with a PARI LC PLUS Reusable Nebulizer. Administer as follows: One single-use ampule (300 mg /5 mL) of tobramycin inhalation solution twice a day by oral inhalation in alternating periods of 28 days on drug, followed by 28 days off drug. The 300 mg/5mL dose of tobramycin inhalation solution is the same for all patients regardless of age or weight. The doses should be taken as close to 12 hours apart as possible; they should not be taken less than 6 hours apart.

Curator's Comment: Low dose tobramycin (4 ug/ml) as a single agent was bactericidal against only 16% of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates; however, 72% of isolates were killed with high-dose tobramycin (200 ug/ml).
High-dose tobramycin (200 ug/ml) killed 72% of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates
