Walamycin DS Suspension belongs to the class of medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat bacterial infections caused by susceptible Gram-negative bacteria. Bacterial infections are caused by the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Symptoms of bacterial infection vary depending on the organ affected by bacteria.

Walamycin DS Suspension contains Colistin Sulphate. Colistin effectively solubilizes the bacterial cell membrane, resulting in bacterial cell death. As a result, Walamycin DS Suspension destroys the bacteria and successfully treats the infection.

Take Walamycin DS Suspension as prescribed by your doctor. Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to take Walamycin DS Suspension for as long as your doctor prescribes it. Sometimes, you may experience common side effects like dizziness, upset stomach, rash, diarrhoea, vertigo (spinning sensation), paresthesia (tingling or pricking sensation) and slurred speech. But these side effects are usually in the initial phase and resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist, let your doctor know.

Before receiving Walamycin DS Suspension, let your doctor know about all your medical conditions, sensitivities, and all medications you are using. And also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Walamycin DS Suspension can cause blurred vision and dizziness in some people; if this occurs, do not drive or operate tools or machinery. It is recommended not to consume any alcoholic beverages while on treatment with this medicine.

Walamycin DS Suspension contains Colistin Sulphate, which is used for treating acute or chronic infections due to sensitive strains of certain gram-negative bacilli, particularly Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Colistin sulphate effectively solubilizes the bacterial cell membrane, resulting in bacterial cell death. As a result, Walamycin DS Suspension destroys the bacteria and successfully treats the infection.

Before taking the Walamycin DS Suspension, let your doctor know about all your medical conditions, sensitivities, and all medications you are using. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding before receiving Walamycin DS Suspension. Also, inform your doctor if you have chronic kidney disease, myasthenia gravis (muscle disorder), and porphyria (a blood disorder). Do not abruptly discontinue taking the prescription since this may result in antibiotic resistance, a condition in which bacteria develop resistance to antibiotics.
