What is Ertapenem?

Ertapenem is a prescription antibiotic IV injection that treats bacterial infections. It is approved to treat bacterial pneumonia, abdominal infections, skin infections, urinary tract infections, pelvic infections, and to prevent bacterial infections after surgery. Ertapenem is similar to penicillin in its mechanism of action. It kills bacteria by sticking to proteins on the bacteria which are vital to the bacteria's ability to form a cell wall. The bacterial cell wall degenerates and develops gaps and holes through which the contents of the bacteria spill out, killing the cell.
