Part Description
LP17167-5 Meropenem
Meropenem is an ultra-broad spectrum antibiotic used to treat a wide variety of infections, including meningitis and pneumonia. It is a beta-lactam and belongs to the subgroup carbapenem. Meropenem was developed by Sumitomo Pharmaceuticals. It is marketed outside Japan by AstraZeneca under the brand names Merrem® and Meronem®. Unlike imipenem, it is not affected by the renal dehydrogenase and can therefore be given without cilastatin. It penetrates into the cerebrospinal fluid. Meropenem is less likely to cause seizures compared to imipenem.
