It also activates the endogenous enzyme which degrades the peptidoglycan.These results in inhibition of protein synthesis and there by cell wall synthesis. Indications for Meropenem 1.Appendicitis 2.Peritonitis 3.Cystic fibrosis 4.Pneumonia 5.Meningitis 6.Skin infection Interactions for Meropenem Probenecid competes with meropenem for active tubular secretion and thus inhibits the renal excretion of meropenem.
