The decision to prescribe colistimethate sodium, including patient selection, dose and monitoring, rests entirely with the treating physician. This page provides sourcing and procurement information for hospitals and pharmacies, not clinical or treatment guidance.

Pharma supplies genuine Acostin® (Colistimethate Sodium) 4.5 MIU Injection to hospitals and pharmacies across India. Buyers comparing pharmaceutical distribution companies and wholesale pharmaceutical distributors can also browse our full product range and the Anti Biotic medicines category.

Acostin contains colistimethate sodium (colistin), a polymyxin-class antibacterial supplied as a powder for injection in a vial. Indian listings name Sun Pharma as the marketer.
How it works, according to the label: The US prescribing information for the reference product (Coly-Mycin M Parenteral, DailyMed) describes colistimethate as an antibacterial for gram-negative bacilli. Indications and use in India are those printed in the Indian pack insert.
The current US prescribing information for Coly-Mycin M (colistimethate) (DailyMed) lists the following. Indications in India may differ and are defined by the Indian regulator and the Acostin pack insert.
A randomised trial published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases in 2018 (Paul et al.) compared colistin alone with colistin plus meropenem in severe infections caused by carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria. The label itself relies on susceptibility information and clinical experience. Results and conclusions are those of the trial authors and the prescribing information; A.K. Pharma does not interpret them.
