Composition
Colimixin®
Each gram of colimixin 3® contains:
3.000.000 I.U. colistin sulfate
Mechanism of Action:
Colimixin 3® is a Polymyxin antibiotic. Mechanism of action of Polymyxins is not yet clearly defined. However it is known that contrary to many antibiotics acting only during growth phase of bacteria, Colimixin 3® kills bacteria both in their active and passive stages. Microbial organisms sensitive to Colimixin 3® seldom develop resistance to it.
Indications of use

Colimixin3® is not absorbed through gut and thus yields high concentration in gut lumen, exerting more efficacy than many other antibiotics. It can also be used simultaneously with many antibiotics including Erythromycin, Clindamycin, Bacitracin and Sulfonamides to obtain synergistic effect.
