About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Imidac 500 Injection is a sterile, injectable formulation containing Imipenem 500 mg and Cilastatin 500 mg, indicated for the treatment of serious bacterial infections caused by susceptible organisms. Imipenem is a broad-spectrum carbapenem antibiotic effective against a wide range of Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and anaerobic bacteria. Cilastatin is a renal dehydropeptidase inhibitor that prevents the degradation of Imipenem in the kidneys, thereby enhancing its efficacy and prolonging its half-life. This combination is particularly useful in treating complicated intra-abdominal infections, urinary tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, bone and joint infections, and septicemia. Imidac 500 Injection is administered intravenously, typically by slow infusion, with dosage and duration tailored according to the severity of infection, renal function, and patient response. The drug exhibits bactericidal activity by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. Caution is advised in patients with a history of seizures or renal impairment. Common adverse effects include nausea, vomiting, rash, and transient elevations in liver enzymes. Hypersensitivity reactions may occur in penicillin-allergic individuals. Imidac 500 Injection should be used under strict medical supervision, with appropriate microbiological monitoring to prevent resistance development and ensure optimal therapeutic outcomes.
