Zironem Injection contains meropenem trihydrate, a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections.

How Zironem Injection Works:

Binds to penicillin-binding proteins to prevent bacterial cell wall synthesis
Exhibits bactericidal activity against gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic pathogens
Can be used alone or combined with other antibacterial drugs as needed

Dosage and Administration:

Dosed 500mg-2g every 8 hours by intravenous infusion over 15-30 minutes
The dose depends on the type/severity of infection, renal function, and body weight in pediatrics
Treatment duration ranges from 5 days for uncomplicated infections to 2+ weeks for severe presentations
Dose needs adjustment in renal impairment due to reduced drug elimination

Precautions:

Hypersensitivity reactions are possible; discontinue infusion if this occurs

Seizures and CNS adverse events reported; use with caution in CNS disorders
Can cause thrombocytopenia and coagulation deficiencies rarely
Only use if expected benefits outweigh potential antibiotic risks

Under medical observation, meropenem injection combats invasive bacterial strains when standard antibiotics cannot. Dosing regimens must be individualized and monitored to ensure safety and efficacy.

Meropenem injection should only be given by a healthcare professional in a hospital setting or infusion clinic. Carefully follow the prescribing doctor’s instructions.
It is administered via intravenous (IV) infusion directly into the vein over 15-30 minutes. An IV infusion pump helps control the rate.
The dose, frequency, and duration of infusion depends on the type and severity of bacterial infection being treated, patient age and kidney function.
Standard doses in adults are typically 500 mg, 1 gram or 2 grams every 8 hours. The prescribing medical professional will specify the appropriate meropenem dosage regimen tailored to the patient.
Medical staff should monitor patients closely for signs of hypersensitivity during and after the infusion. Seek emergency care if severe allergic reaction manifests.
Prior to use, inspect visually that the meropenem injection looks clear without particles. Discard if solution is cloudy or contains particles.
Correct aseptic technique must be used when preparing the injection IV bag and infusion supplies to prevent contamination.
IV tubing and ports should be thoroughly flushed after infusion administration is complete.

Protocols may vary by medical facility. Patients should seek emergency care for severe adverse effects like shortness of breath, hives, or swelling of the face/tongue during infusion.
