I wouldn't worry about it too much, that med was used for years, but if Amikacin is safer, in the future I would tell the vet that I wanted to use it.
My vet always talks to me about any meds he wants to use and explains any possible side effects, then asks if I want to go ahead.
Maybe he is wrong about the Gentamicin, although I trust him thoroughly, he is used by all the local breeders that I know.
Oh BTW, He has given me single shots of Gentamicin for ailments other than RI.
I may be mistaken but I believe any problems that arise with the drugs use, is from repeated doses as required for RI treatment.
good luck,
TomChambers
