Merrem
Semi-synthetic carbapenem antibiotics
Meropenem is another kind of parenteral administrated semi-synthetic carbapenem antibiotics after imipenem-cilastatin has entered into market in the United State.
It can inhibit the bacterial cell wall synthesis through binding with the penicillin-binding proteins involved in cell wall synthesis (PBPs) through its covalent bond, thus playing its antibacterial effect. Both Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria are sensitive to it. It has a particular strong antibacterial activity against gram negative bacteria.
For example, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of it on about 90% of Enterobacter was about 0.08-0.15mg/L with more than 90% of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains (MIC <4mg/L) being highly sensitive to it as well as all Haemophilus including their ampicillin-resistant strains being highly sensitive to it (MIC of 0.06-1mg/L). Neisseria gonorrhoeae is also highly sensitive to meropenem whose activity is 15 fold as high as imipenem. Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus saprophyticus and other coagulase-negative staphylococci is also sensitive to meropenem. The majority strains of Enterococcus faecalis are highly or moderately sensitive to meropenem. A concentration of MIC (0.06-4mg/L) of meropenem can almost suppress all of Bacteroides fragilis. Anaerobe such as Peptostreptococcus, Propionibacterium, and Actinomyces are also sensitive to meropenem.
Indications
Clinically, meropenem is suitable for treating the following infections caused by susceptible strains:
1. Respiratory infections such as chronic bronchitis, nosocomial pneumonia, lung abscess and empyema.
2. Intra-abdominal infections such as cholecystitis, cholangitis, liver abscess and peritonitis.

4. Bones, joints and skin and soft tissue infections such as cellulitis, anal abscess, osteomyelitis, arthritis, trauma, wound infection, burn wound infections, surgical wound infections, maxilla and mandible surrounding cellulitis.
5. Eye and ENT infections.
6. Empirical treatment; for patients of adult neutropenia with fever, the drug can be used alone or be used in combination with antiviral or antifungal drugs.
7. It can be used either alone or in combination with other anti-microbial agents for the treatment of complex infections.
8. Other serious infections, such as meningitis, septicemia.

Comparison among three kinds of carbapenems antibiotics
Meropenem, imipenem and panipenem, all these three kinds of carbapenems class antibiotics have good antibacterial activity against all kinds of G + and G-bacteria, aerobe and anaerobe. Clinically it is mostly used for treating the severe infection, mixed infection, nosocomial infection and immuno-deficient infection caused by enzyme-producing strain, and multi-drug resistant strains as well as G-strain.
The differences between the three antibiotics are as follows:
1, each of them has their own focus regarding its antibacterial effect. They have a similar antibacterial spectrum against the anaerobes. For aerobic non-fermentation gram negative bacteria, meropenem has the strongest antibacterial activity, followed by imipenem, panipenem. For G+ bacteria, panipenem has the strongest antibacterial activity.
2, for the adverse reactions of the central nervous system, the imipenem can cause the highest incidence with the incidence of the meropenem and panipenem being low.
3, Imipenem is unstable under the reaction of human renal dehydropeptidase, thus should be used in combination with the enzyme inhibitor cilastatin. Meropenem and panipenem is stable to the human renal dehydropeptidase. Panipenem have some extent of kidney toxicity with often being used together with betamethasone in order to reduce the nephrotoxicity.
4, imipenem and panipenem is only be available for intravenous injection. Intramuscular injection can also be applied for administration of meropenem.

Description
Meropenem is a new carbapenem antibiotic introduced to market for the i.v.
treatment of a wide variety of hospital infections such as lower respiratory tract,
urinary tract, intraabdominal, gynecological and polymicrobial infections.
Meropenem has a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against most clinically
important Gram-positive and Gramnegative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria with
especially high potency against multiresistant Enterobacteriaceae and
Pseudornonas aeruginosa. Compared with imipenem, the only other available
carbapenem antibiotic, meropenem has the advantage of being dehydropeptidase 1
(DHP-1) stable and therefore does not need to be administered in conjunction with
the DHP-1 inhibitor cilastatin. Meropenem is also being evaluated for treatment of
resistant pseudomonal infections in cystic fibrosis patients.

Manufacturing Process
3.10 g of trans-1-(p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)-4-hydroxy-L-proline and 1.10 g of triethylamine were dissolved in 40 ml of dried tetrahydrofuran, and a solution of 1.20 g of ethyl chloroformate in 10 ml of dried tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise thereto at -25-35°C. After stirring at the same temperature for 50 min, 10 ml of concentrated aqueous ammonia was added dropwise to the mixture at -25-40°C. The temperature was then gradually elevated to room temperature, and the reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour, followed by concentration under reduced pressure. To the residue were added 20 ml of water and 50 ml of diethyl ether. After ice-cooling, the thus formed white crystals were separated by filtration, washed successively with cool water and cool diethyl ether, and dried under reduced pressure to yield trans-1-(pnitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)-4-hydroxy-L-prolineamide. Melting point: 163.3-164.0°C.

in 40 ml of dried tetrahydrofuran at room temperature. After stirring for 1
hour, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and to
the residue were added 30 ml of water and 30 ml of diethyl ether. After
cooling, the resulting white crystals were separated by filtration, washed
successively with cool water and cool diethyl ether and dried under reduced
pressure to obtain trans-1-(p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)-4-methanesulfonyloxyL-prolineamide. Melting point: 149.5-151°C.
A solution of 642 mg of thioacetic acid in 14 ml of dried dimethylformamide
was added to a suspension of 374 mg of 50% sodium hydride in 13 ml of
dried dimethylformamide in a nitrogen stream, followed by stirring at room

Clinical Use
Meropenem is a synthetic carbapenem possessing a complex side chain at C-3. It also has a chiral methyl
group at C-4. This methyl group conveys intrinsic resistance to hydrolysis by dehydropeptidase-1. As a
consequence, it can be administered as a single agent for the treatment of severe bacterial infections.
in vitro
the meropenem mics for penicillin-resistant streptococcus pneumoniae were higher than for the penicillin-susceptible strains but the organisms remained susceptible. clinical susceptibility in vitro to meropenem was defined by mics of ≤4 mg/l, intermediate susceptibility by mics of 8 mg/l and mics of ≥16 mg/l define resistance; equivalent figures for zones of growth inhibition were ≥14 (susceptible), 12-13 (intermediate) and ≤11 (resistant) mm [1].meropenem was 2- to 4-fold more active than imipenem against gram-negative organisms and its spectrum of antimicrobial activity was wider than those of all other drugs tested.meropenem inhibited all anaerobic bacteria at less than or equal to 8 mg/l and 0.25 mg/l inhibited 50% of strains. meropenem mics were not significantly influenced by high inocula and the drug was generally bactericidal [2]. meropenem bound most strongly to penicillin-binding protein 2 of escherichia coli and pseudomonas aeruginosa, and to penicillin-binding proteins 1 of staphylococcus aureus [3].meropenem had one identified metabolite, a β-lactam ring-opened form which is devoid of microbiological activity [4].
in vivo
in rabbits, meropenem significantly increased the plamsa total clearance of valproate to about 1.5 times compared to the control (6.09 ml/min/kg vs. 4.28 ml/min/kg). meropenem significantly increased the urinary excretion of valproate- glucuronide in rabbits [5].
