Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API)
Meropenem
Ultra Broad-spectrum Antibiotic (Carbapenem)
A carbapenem antibiotic similar to Imipenem but inherently stable against the kidney enzyme dehydropeptidase-I, meaning it does not require co-administration with Cilastatin. It is widely used to treat life-threatening, multi-drug resistant bacterial infections like bacterial meningitis, complicated intra-abdominal infections, and sepsis, and is considered a high-priority antimicrobial.
