The second life of polymyxins by Ageevets V.A.

“…Polymyxins are a well-known class of antimicrobial agents that have been used in clinical practice since the 1950s but lost their clinical significance for several decades. The rise of antibiotic resistance has led to the resurgence of polymyxins in practice and triggered an "explosive growth" in their use for treating hospital-acquired infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. …”
