About Meronem 1000mg Injection

Meronem 1000mg Injection is an antibiotic used to treat severe infections affecting the skin, lungs, stomach, urinary tract, blood, and brain, such as meningitis. This medication works by eliminating the bacteria responsible for these infections. It is commonly administered to critically ill patients in hospital settings via drip/infusion or direct injection into a vein under medical supervision. The dosage is determined by the type and severity of the infection. It is important to complete the prescribed course of treatment even if symptoms improve to prevent the infection from recurring.

Common side effects of Meronem 1000mg Injection may include headache, nausea, constipation, diarrhea, anemia, vomiting, and rash. These side effects are usually temporary and subside as the body adjusts to the medication. Consult your healthcare provider if you experience persistent or bothersome side effects. Before starting treatment, inform your doctor about any history of epilepsy, liver or kidney issues, or allergies to antibiotics. Periodic blood tests may be recommended during treatment to monitor blood cell count and kidney function. Meronem 1000mg Injection is generally considered safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding under medical guidance.
