Characterization of polymyxin B-induced nephrotoxicity: implications for dosing regimen design.
The increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative infections has led to renewed interest in the use of systemic polymyxin B. However, the nephrotoxic properties of polymyxin B are still poorly understood. The objective of this study was to characterize nephrotoxicity associated with polymyxin B, with an emphasis on examining the impact of dosing frequencies on the onset of nephroto...
متن کاملInterim study: Comparison of safety and efficacy of Levofloxacin plus Colistin regimen with Levofloxacin plus high dose Ampicillin/Sulbactam infusion in treatment of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia due to multi drug resistant Acinetobacte
Due to the emerging antibiotic resistance of Acinetobacter, which is the leading cause of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in critically ill patients, there is an urgent need for studies comparing various antibiotic regimens for its treatment. In this single blinded randomized clinical trial, adult patients with VAP due to multi drug resistant Acinetobacter (MDRA), were randomly assigned ...

متن کاملNephrotoxicity of high and conventional dosing regimens of colistin: A randomized clinical trial
BACKGROUND: Nephrotoxicity has been a major long-standing concern about colistin. This study was designed to compare nephrotoxicity of high dose and conventional dose of colistin. METHODS: A randomized open-labeled clinical trial on 40 patients with multi-drug resistant gram negative infections was designed. Patients were allocated into two equal-size groups receiving high and conventional dose...
