Description
Penro IV Injection 500mg — Meropenem
Penro IV Injection 500mg contains Meropenem, a broad-spectrum carbapenem beta-lactam antibiotic for intravenous administration. Meropenem inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), causing bacterial cell lysis and death. It demonstrates activity against a wide spectrum of Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms, including many beta-lactamase-producing and multi-drug-resistant strains.
Clinical Indications
- Severe pneumonia including hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated pneumonia
- Septicaemia and bacteraemia in hospitalised patients
- Bacterial meningitis requiring parenteral carbapenem therapy
- Complicated intra-abdominal and pelvic infections
- Complicated urinary tract infections including acute pyelonephritis
- Skin and soft tissue infections in hospital settings
- Febrile neutropenia as empirical therapy in immunocompromised patients
Administration
Penro IV 500mg is for intravenous administration only by qualified healthcare professionals. Reconstitute and dilute per institutional pharmacy protocol before IV infusion.
