Purpose: In recent years, the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) microorganisms had caused the resurgence of colistin use after it was previously abandoned due to its side effects, nephrotoxicity in particular. However, the specific incidence of colistin-induced nephrotoxicity varies in reports with different populations. This study aims to assess the incidence of colistin-associated nephrotoxicity and the associated risk factors.
