EFFECTS OF VITAMIN B COMPLEX THERAPY ON TEMPORAL VARIATION IN GENTAMICIN NEPHROTOXICITY IN WISTAR RATS
ABSTRACT The efficacy and toxicity of several drugs is circadian-rhythm dependent, and this can be exploited as a guide to ameliorate such drug toxicity. Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic used in treatment of a variety of infections. Its use is however limited by its associated nephrotoxicity. This nephrotoxicity is ameliorated by reduction in dosing frequency to once a day dosing, use of antioxidants and exploration of circadian variation in ...
