A chronic lung infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa is associated with an increased exacerbation and mortality rate in people affected by bronchiectasis. Inhaled antibiotics are frequently used in clinical practice to treat chronic infections with this bacterium. The PROMIS-I and PROMIS-II studies investigated the efficacy and safety of 12-month inhaled colistimethate sodium administration in patients with bronchiectasis and chronic P. aeruginosa infection.
