Medical Description
Xylis powder for injection contains colistimethate, an antibiotic used in hospital care for certain severe bacterial infections when other treatment options may not be suitable. Colistimethate is converted in the body to colistin, which damages the outer covering of susceptible bacteria so they cannot survive. This prescription medicine is prepared and given by injection by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or clinic. Kidney function, nerve symptoms and breathing may need close monitoring during treatment.
