My daughter just started this for a 6 month eradication protocol of pseudomonas. The gave us the eflow treo nebulizer to go with it. She is prescribed 75 mg/3ml morning and night. She is sooooo picky that if it tasted really bad she would show it. Only takes 4 minutes to nebulize. Super easy. The treo is fantastic and doesn't make a sound!
If you are using a compounding pharmacy to premix Colistimathe you should be aware of the following article:

Let us know what your compounder is telling you. This alert is dated 2007 so it may be stale.
I'm investigating as well.

Thanks for sharing. I hadn't seen this article but our instructions are to mix right before use then throw remainder away. I am a little concerned they didn't further emphasize the risks of this drug, especially after it "cooks" for so long.
Thanks so much for the info. I also have the eflow treo so it's good to know I can use it.My daughter just started this for a 6 month eradication protocol of pseudomonas.
