Clinical failure was not affected by colistin dosing strategies in our cohort of patients with sepsis. Moreover, the co-administration of carbapenems and the development of septic shock may increase the risk of inducing AKI in adult septic patients treated with IV colistin. Further studies are required to confirm these findings.
