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.
