According To Your Needs
VERKANA is a BP-compliant, lyophilized kanamycin injection. It treats serious bacterial infections effectively. As a result, hospitals commonly include it in second-line regimens for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and select severe Gram-negative infections.
The kit combines:
- Kanamycin (as Kanamycin Sulfate) BP (1g, Lyophilized) – This aminoglycoside antibiotic binds to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit. Consequently, it disrupts protein synthesis, killing susceptible bacteria including Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains resistant to first-line therapy.
- Sterile Water for Injection (10ml) – This accompanying diluent reconstitutes the lyophilized powder. Therefore, it prepares the product for immediate I.V. administration.
Because kanamycin remains active against many resistant organisms, VERKANA suits multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) as part of a second-line combination regimen, and select severe Gram-negative infections where aminoglycoside therapy is indicated. Therefore, specialist TB centers and hospitals commonly reserve it for cases where first-line therapy has failed or isn’t suitable.
