How does this medicine work?

Colistimethate works by damaging the cell wall of bacteria, which prevents them from growing and multiplying. This allows your body's immune system to fight off the infection.

Some medicines can affect the way this antibiotic works. Tell your hospital doctor about all medicines you have been taking before admission. In particular, if you have been taking other antibiotics, nephrotoxic medicines, or neuromuscular blocking agents, inform your doctor immediately.

No significant food interactions.
