The Bespalov\|Talanov theory is extended to include the effects of gain and loss of the medium. An analytic expression for the growth rate of the ripples is obtained and it reveals some new properties of small\|scale self\|focusing. For a given input power, the cutoff spatial frequency, the fastest growing frequency and the maximum perturbation growth, in an amplifying medium, increase with the increase of the gain of the medium and propagation distance. For a given output power, as the medium gain increases, the maximum perturbation growth, and thus the B \|integral, decreases, while the fastest growing frequency shifts to lower frequency. Also, the expression for the distance at which the filaments are formed is obtained by means of a phenomenological approach, and it is found that the gain (loss) of the medium extends (reduces) the distance. It is thus concluded that it is an effective way to suppress the small\|scale self\|focusing by increasing the gain of the medium.
