Tebipenem
Tebipenem is an orally available carbapenem antibiotic. Tebipenem is active against a panel of clinical isolates from a variety of bacterial species (MIC50s ≤ 0.0039 ~ 8 µg/ml), including methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (S. epidermidis), as well as penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. pneumonia). Tebipenem also inhibits β-lactamase in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Tebipenem pivoxil, a derivative of tebipenem, has been under development as the first orally available carbapenem antibiotic for the treatment of respiratory and otolaryngological infections caused by drug-resistant S. pneumonia in pediatric patients.
