Abstract
A gauze tampon, which contains an ointment incorporating dibekacin sulfate, was prepared and investigated as a device to prevent bacterial infection after operation of chronic sinusitis. It was proved that no loss of potency occurred upon heat sterilization and that it was stable even after storage for a long period. This gauze tampon was easy to insert into the paranasal sinuses, achieving satisfactory therapeutic efficacy in terms of hemostasis and disinfection. No adverse reactions have been observed.
