To correctly administer Kallistro 3 MIU Injection 1, follow these steps:

• Ensure this injection is administered under the supervision of a medical professional.

• The injection can be delivered either directly into a vein or infused over 30 to 60 minutes.

Kallistro 3 MIU Injection 1 is administered intravenously.

Kallistro 3 MIU Injection 1 contains Colistin (3 MIU), which acts on the body through the following mechanisms:

• Penetrates bacterial cell membrane: Colistin enters and disrupts the bacterial cell membrane. This is a protective barrier around a bacterium, so disrupting it can lead to cell death.

• Exhibits bactericidal activity: Once colistin penetrates the bacterial cell membrane, it causes bacteria-killing activity. This action is particularly effective against certain strains of aerobic gram-negative microorganisms such as Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

• Ensure Kallistro 3 MIU Injection 1 is stored at room temperature.

• Avoid exposure to light and keep it sealed in its original packaging until use.

• Always keep this medicine out of children's reach.

• Ensure you administer the injection before the expiry date mentioned on the packaging.

• If you are battling a severe bacterial infection, consume a healthy diet rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals to strengthen your immune system. This can include lean meats, fish, fruits, vegetables and whole grains.

• Try to avoid crowded places as much as possible to reduce your chances of acquiring additional infections while your body is already fighting off bacteria.
