Abstract
Intravenous tobramycin produces acute tubular injury, which showed evidence of almost complete recovery after 4 weeks. The insult to the tubules was not sufficient to produce hypomagnesaemia in our study group. To assess cumulative tubular damage in more detail it would be necessary to repeat this study after further courses of tobramycin. We recommend monitoring plasma magnesium during courses of intravenous tobramycin.
