Original Abstract of the Article :
Carbapenems remain a mainstay for the empirical treatment of serious nosocomial infection. Although the tolerance and safety profile of the carbapenems as a class is favorable, the primary safety concern is the potential for treatment-emergent seizures. In preclinical testing, doripenem, a new carba...See full text at original site

Doripenem: A Safe and Effective Carbapenem Antibiotic

In the field of [Infectious Diseases], carbapenem antibiotics are a cornerstone of treatment for serious nosocomial infections. This study investigates the safety and tolerability of doripenem, a new carbapenem antibiotic, in a series of clinical trials involving patients with various nosocomial infections. The authors demonstrate that doripenem exhibits a favorable safety profile, comparable to other carbapenem antibiotics, with a low incidence of treatment-emergent seizures, even when administered via a prolonged infusion.
