Merocef Injection (Meropenem - 1 gm + Sodium 90.2 mg) is used in the treatment of such conditions.

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Meropenem : Inhibition of Bacterial Cell Divider Amalgamation: Meropenem, a carbapenem anti-microbial, ties to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) found on the bacterial cell divider. This authoritative represses the cross-linking of peptidoglycan layers, which are vital for keeping up the auxiliary judgment of the bacterial cell divider. This disturbance leads to cell lysis and passing of the bacteria.
Broad-Spectrum Action: Merocef Injection (Meropenem - 1 gm + Sodium 90.2 mg) is compelling against a wide run of Gram-positive and Gram-negative microscopic organisms, counting numerous strains safe to other antibiotics.

Sodium : Stabilizer and Solvency Enhancer: Sodium in the detailing fundamentally serves as a stabilizer and makes a difference alter the pH and dissolvability of the meropenem infusion. Whereas sodium itself does not have an antimicrobial impact, it is basic for the appropriate detailing and organization of the anti-microbial.
