Comparative study of polymyxin B and colistin sulfate in the treatment of severe comorbid patients infected with CR-GNB
Abstract Background With the difficulties in choosing colistin sulfate and polymyxin B sulfate (PBS) for carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB), we compared the efficacy and safety of these two old polymyxins in treatment of critically ill patients infected with CR-GNB infection.
