Meropenem is a penem antibacterial. It blocks the formation of the bacterial cell wall, so the bacteria become weak and die. It acts against the bacteria listed in its prescribing information, such as methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, streptococci, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacteroides fragilis.

Must not be used in patients with known hypersensitivity to meropenem or any component of the product. Must not be used in patients who have had anaphylactic reactions to beta-lactam antibiotics (such as penicillins, cephalosporins or other penems). Check with a doctor first if there is a history of allergy to multiple allergens or to penicillins. Check with a doctor first if the patient has a history of seizures or kidney problems. Should not be co-administered with valproic acid or divalproex sodium, as their levels can fall and the risk of breakthrough seizures can rise.
