Activity of fosfomycin/colistin combinations against planktonic and biofilm Gram-negative pathogens.

Fosfomycin and colistin in combination, at concentrations achievable via inhalation of nebulized drugs, showed notable synergy against MDR Gram-negative pathogens grown in biofilm, and were able to reduce the emergence of fosfomycin- and colistin-resistant subpopulations.
