Imiren 0.5 gm Injection 1's may also be used in the management of patients with low white blood cell count who have a fever, which is suspected to be due to bacterial infection. Cilastatin inhibits the dehydropeptidase enzyme, which causes the breakdown of Imipenem, thereby helps imipenem to stay active for a longer duration. Imipenem prevents the formation of the bacterial protective covering, which is necessary for the survival of the bacteria. Together, Imiren 0.5 gm Injection 1's helps to treat bacterial infections. Imipenem is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is effective against a wide range of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria.
