ما توثقه كل دراسة توثيقية حول الجرعة: النظام المعتمد في النشرة حيثما وجد، والتعرضات المدروسة في تجارب فردية، وما لم يثبت. عرض مرجعي للأدلة الموثقة — وليس أداة لتحديد الجرعات.
رسم تحريري تجريدي (مولّد بالذكاء الاصطناعي؛ النموذج والبصمات مسجلة في public/dose-evidence/manifest.json). لا يصوّر أي جزيء أو منتج أو جهاز أو بيانات.
كيفية قراءة هذه الصفحة
النظام المعتمد في النشرة هو الجرعات التي راجعها جهة تنظيمية لمنتج واستطباب واختصاص قضائي وفئة سكانية محددة. يظهر هنا مع هذا الإطار مرفقًا؛ وهو يخص النشرة الحالية لذلك المنتج، لا أي مادة أخرى تُباع بالاسم نفسه أو باسم مشابه.
التعرض المدروس يصف ما أعطته دراسة واحدة. وليس توصية: فقد تكون الدراسة فشلت أو تسببت بضرر أو لم تُكرر نتائجها أبدًا.
لا يُعد أي من النوعين نصيحة. لا شيء هنا يختار أو يحوّل أو يكيّف جرعة لأي شخص، ولا تُحتسب أي قيمة أو تُطبَّع أو تُرتَّب بين المركبات — تُعرض الإدخالات الموثقة جنبًا إلى جنب تمامًا كما سُجلت.

CMS IV (Coly-Mycin M Parenteral): 2.5-5 mg/kg/day colistin base activity divided q8-12h. The vial is labeled as 150 mg colistin base activity (CBA) per vial.
Critical dosing safety note: In the US, CMS vials are labeled as "150 mg colistin base activity." In Europe (Colomycin), vials are labeled in International Units (1 MU = 80 mg CMS = 30 mg CBA). This difference has caused fatal medication errors.
Studied regimens (not recommendations)يصف دراسة واحدة — ليس توصية
A loading dose of 300 mg CBA (approximately 9 MU), followed by maintenance dosing, is recommended in international consensus guidelines (Tsuji et al. 2019, endorsed by IDSA/SCCM/ACCP/SIDP) to achieve therapeutic colistin concentrations more rapidly in critically ill patients. This is a consensus recommendation, not a labeled regimen.
What is not established
Optimal dosing for critically ill patients (loading dose is guideline-based, not prospectively validated in an RCT vs no-loading approach).
Inhaled colistin (used as adjunctive therapy for VAP or for cystic fibrosis, but not FDA-labeled for these indications).
