Risk factors of colistin safety according to administration routes: Intravenous and aerosolized colistin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
BACKGROUND:Nephrotoxicity of intravenous (IV) colistin has impeded its clinical use; aerosolized (AS) colistin may be an alternative, but safety data are lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and risk
