Ertapenem

A beta-lactam antibiotic of the carbapenem family, given intravenously or intramuscularly; approved in the United States in 2001 and in Europe in 2002, it is used against serious bacterial infections, such as abdominal ones. This family brings together the active ingredient, nitrosamines and other impurities.

Did you know?It binds strongly to blood proteins, which release it slowly: its half-life of about 4 hours gives it a longer-lasting action than the other widely used carbapenems.
