Meropenem

Used For

Bacterial Infection

How it works

Meropenem exerts its bactericidal activity by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria through binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). Meropenem binds to PBPs 2, 3 and 4 of Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa; and PBPs 1, 2 and 4 of Staphylococcus aureus.

When not to Use

Meropenem is contraindicated in patients:- With known hypersensitivity to meropenem or to any excipient of the product.- Hypersensitive to any other carbapenem antibacterial agent.- Who have demonstrated anaphylactic reactions to any other type of ß-lactams antibacterial agent (e.g. Penicillins or cephalosporins).

Precautions

Precaution

The selection of meropenem to treat an individual patient should take into account the appropriateness of using a carbapenem antibacterial agent based on factors such as severity of the infection, the prevalence of resistance to other suitable antibacterial agents and the risk of selecting for carbapenem-resistant bacteria.

Warnings

Warning 1

As with all beta-lactam antibiotics, serious and occasionally fatal hypersensitivity reactions have been reported. Before initiating therapy with meropenem, careful inquiry should be made concerning previous hypersensitivity reactions to beta-lactam antibiotics. If a severe allergic reaction occurs, meropenem should be discontinued and appropriate measures should be taken.

Warning 2

Seizures have infrequently been reported during treatment with carbapenems, including meropenem.

Warning 3

Hepatic function should be closely monitored during treatment with meropenem due to the risk of hepatic toxicity (hepatic dysfunction with cholestasis and cytolysis).
