Heteroresistance Is Associated With in vitro Regrowth During Colistin Treatment in Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae
Polymyxins including polymyxin B and colistin (polymyxin E) are considered the last resort for treating infections caused by carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria. However, in vitro regrowth with the emergence of resistance during treatment is common. Polymyxin heteroresistance, particularly i...
