Application
Meropenem: A Carbapenem Antibiotic with Broad Spectrum of Activity and Stability to β-Lactamases
Meropenem, which is the second carbapenem antibiotic, has a broad spectrum of activity that includes activity against gram-positive bacteria and excellent gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic activity. It has enhanced gram-negative activity relative to imipenem (the first carbapenem antibiotic)-cilastatin and often retains activity against strains resistant to third-generation cephalosporins and imipenem-cilastatin. It has increased stability to β-lactamases compared with imipenem.
