These results suggest that ascorbic acid could reduce colistin sulfate-induced neurotoxicity through the resistance of oxidative stress and the prevention of apoptosis mediated via mitochondria pathway.
They also highlight the potential of coadministering ascorbic acid to widen the therapeutic dose of colistin.

Ascorbic acid (200 mg/kg) altered colistin pharmacokinetics, as the total body clearance decreased from 3.78 ± 0.36 mL/min/kg (colistin group) to 2.46 ± 0.57 mL/min/kg (P = 0.0024).
Co-administration of ascorbic acid has the potential to increase the therapeutic index of colistin.
