Introduction
Polymyxin B is one of the most important antibiotics used to treat gram-negative bacterial infections, including infections caused by carbapenem-resistant non-fermenters and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. Mode of Action: Polymyxin B Sulfate binds to the lipid A portion of bacterial lipopolysaccharides?, disrupting the cytoplasmic membrane by inducing pores large enough to permit nucleotide leakage in bacterial walls. This disrupts the permeability of the cytoplasmic membrane.
