Abstract EN
Recent pharmacokinetic studies have suggested that nonrenal clearance predominates the elimination of polymyxin B.
We present 2 patients with preexisting end stage renal failure, who were given nonattenuated doses of polymyxin B for the treatment of extreme-drug resistant organism.
No evidence of adverse events occurred and microbiological clearance was documented.
