Colistin sulfate is a polypeptide antibiotic effective against gram-negative bacteria. It functions by binding to lipopolysaccharides and phospholipids in the outer cell membrane, competitively displacing divalent cations. This leads to a detergent-like mechanism that is bactericidal to gram-negative bacteria. It is characterized by rapid bacterial killing, a narrow spectrum of activity, and slow development of resistance.
