Netilmicin, sold under the brand name Netromycin among others, is an antibiotic used to treat conjunctivitis and urinary tract infections among other bacterial infections.[2][3][5] It is available as an eye drop, and has been given by injection.[4][5]

Side effects may include eye redness or discomfort.[4] Other concerns include hearing problems and kidney problems.[4][5] Use is not recommended when breastfeeding.[5] It is an aminoglycoside and works by interfering with protein production by bacteria.[5][1]

Netilmicin was patented in 1973 and approved for medical use in 1981.[6] It was approved for external eye infections in the UK in 2019.[1] The eye drop is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines as an alternative to gentamicin.[7] In the United Kingdom a course of treatment costs the [[NHS about £10.[8] It is made by altering sisomicin.[5]
