FAROEZE 10X6

About

Faroeze, likely containing Faropenem, is an oral carbapenem antibiotic belonging to the beta-lactam class. It exerts its bactericidal action by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, specifically by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) within bacterial cells. Faropenem possesses a broad spectrum of activity against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, including many strains that have developed resistance to other commonly used antibiotics.

Its unique chemical structure provides stability against various beta-lactamase enzymes, making it particularly effective against multi-drug resistant pathogens. It is typically prescribed for community-acquired infections where a broad-spectrum agent is warranted due to the nature of the infection or suspected resistance. The drug is well-absorbed orally, offering a convenient and effective treatment option for patients who might otherwise require intravenous antibiotics, thus improving patient compliance and comfort.
