What is Tobramycin?

Tobi is an inhaled antibiotic used to manage respiratory infections in cystic fibrosis patients. This prescription medication helps control chronic lung infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Suitable for adults and children over six years old.

What is Tobramycin used for?

Tobi is primarily used to treat chronic lung infections in people with cystic fibrosis. It works by reducing the number of bacteria in the lungs, helping to manage symptoms and slow disease progression. This medication is specifically designed for inhalation use to target the lungs directly.

What are the side effects of Tobramycin?

When inhaled, Tobi works locally in the lungs to combat bacterial growth. Users may experience improved breathing and reduced coughing over time. Some may notice a decrease in sputum production as the medication takes effect.

What precautions apply to Tobramycin?

Store Tobi in the refrigerator until ready to use. Once opened, it can be kept at room temperature for up to 28 days. Always use a nebulizer system as directed by a healthcare provider. Do not mix with other medications in the nebulizer.

What does Tobramycin interact with?

Tobi may interact with other inhaled medications or antibiotics. Avoid using other inhaled drugs immediately before or after Tobi unless advised by a doctor. Consult a healthcare professional if you are taking diuretics or other systemic antibiotics.
