Whats That
Iropenem-S Injection belongs to the group of medications called anti-infectives used to treat bacterial infections. Bacterial infections are caused by the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Symptoms of bacterial infection vary depending on the organ affected by bacteria.
Iropenem-S Injection contains Meropenem and Sulbactam. Meropenem is a type of antibiotic. It works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering, which is required for bacterial survival. Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that reduces resistance and improves Meropenem antibacterial activity.
Iropenem-S Injection should only be administered under the supervision of a healthcare professional. The dose depends on the type of infection you have, where the infection is in the body, and how severe the infection is. Your doctor will decide on the dose that you need. The common side-effects of Iropenem-S Injection may include injection site reactions that may occur, including swelling, pain, itching, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, headache, and rash. These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, if any of these side effects persist or get worse, inform your doctor immediately.
To treat your condition effectually, continue using Iropenem-S Injection for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. Do not use Iropenem-S Injection without a doctor's advice if you had a skin reaction or irritation to any medicine. Consult your doctor before using Iropenem-S Injection if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not use Iropenem-S Injection in more than prescribed doses or longer duration as it may cause adverse effects. Do not discontinue or abruptly stop the medication as it may lead to antibiotic resistance, a condition in which bacteria become resistant to antibiotics. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and all the medicines you take before taking Iropenem-S Injection to rule out any side effects. It is not known whether Iropenem-S Injection can interact with alcohol or may affect your ability to drive. So, please discuss with your doctor the possible risks and benefits before taking this medicine.
Iropenem-S Injection contains Meropenem and Sulbactam. Meropenem is an antibiotic that treats the infection by killing the bacteria. Sulbactam is a beta-lactamase (an enzyme produced by bacteria that can destroy antibiotics) inhibitor and prevents the destruction of Meropenem from the bacteria. Iropenem-S Injection has broad-spectrum activity and is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It is used to treat bacterial infections such as skin infections, gynecological infections, and intra-abdominal infections.
It is not recommended to take Iropenem-S Injection if you are allergic to other antibiotics or this medicine's contents. Iropenem-S Injection is not recommended for people with infectious mononucleosis (viral infection with sore throat and fever) and colitis (intestine inflammation). Iropenem-S Injection should be used with caution in patients with kidney impairment. Do not discontinue or abruptly stop the medication as it may lead to antibiotic resistance, a condition in which bacteria become resistant to antibiotics.

Bacterial infections: A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply and infect the body. It can target any organ of the body and multiply very quickly. Bacterial infections vary from minor illnesses (like sore throat and ear infections) to severe brain infections (like meningitis and encephalitis). When infected with bacteria, you can experience generalized symptoms, like fevers, chills, and fatigue. Few harmful bacteria that commonly cause infections include Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and E. coli. Anyone can get a bacterial infection, but people with a weak immune system or taking immunosuppressive medicines like steroids are more prone to infections.
