Hospital buyers ask for Meropenem and Tazobactam injection 1.5gm when an infection stops responding to lighter antibiotics and the culture report points to enzyme-producing gram-negative bacteria. Each vial holds 1000 mg of meropenem with 500 mg of tazobactam. Torso Healthcare makes it as a sterile powder for injection and supplies it to distributors, hospitals, and franchise partners who want the pack under their own label.

What is meropenem and tazobactam injection 1.5gm?

Meropenem and Tazobactam injection 1.5gm is a fixed dose antibiotic combination that pairs 1000 mg of meropenem with 500 mg of tazobactam in a single vial, given into a vein to treat serious bacterial infections in hospital patients. Meropenem belongs to the carbapenem class. It binds the proteins bacteria use to build their cell wall, the wall fails, and the cell dies.

Tazobactam kills very little on its own. Its job is to block beta lactamase, the enzyme many resistant bacteria release to break down beta lactam antibiotics before they can act. Both powders sit in the same vial and a trained nurse or pharmacist reconstitutes them before the drip is set up.

What the Tazobactam Adds and What It Does Not

The inhibitor widens coverage against beta lactamase producing gram negative organisms, including ESBL producers that are common in Indian hospitals. That is the reason the combination exists, and it is the same reasoning behind the ceftazidime and tazobactam injection in our range.

One limit deserves a plain statement, because most listings leave it out. Tazobactam does not block metallo beta lactamases such as NDM. An infection driven by those enzymes will not respond because of the tazobactam in this pack, so the culture and sensitivity report, not the label, decides whether this combination suits the patient.

Meropenem and Tazobactam For Injection 1.5gm Uses

Doctors prescribe this combination for infections severe enough to need a carbapenem delivered into a vein, which is why it sits alongside the rest of our critical care injectables. Reported uses include:

• Pneumonia, including hospital acquired infections
• Complicated urinary tract infections
• Complicated intra abdominal infections
• Skin and soft tissue infections
• Gynecological and pelvic infections
• Bloodstream infections and septicemia

Here is a hypothetical ward scenario, written as an illustration and not as a case report. A patient recovering from abdominal surgery develops an infection that two earlier antibiotics fail to control, and the lab flags an ESBL producing organism. The team moves to meropenem with tazobactam, because the inhibitor keeps those enzymes busy while the carbapenem clears the infection.

Meropenem and Tazobactam Injection 1.5gm Side Effects

Most patients handle this injection well. The effects reported most often are mild:

• Nausea, vomiting or loose stools
• Headache
• Pain, redness, or swelling where the drip goes in
• Skin rash or itching

Two cautions matter more than the rest. Meropenem lowers blood levels of valproic acid sharply, so a patient already taking that anti-seizure medicine can have a seizure if the two run together. Broad-spectrum antibiotics of this class can also set off severe Clostridioides difficile diarrhea, which needs medical review rather than an ordinary anti-diarrhea remedy. Treating doctors watch kidney function and blood counts during longer courses.

Packaging, Storage, and Strength Options

The product ships as a dry sterile powder in a sealed vial. Store it below 25 degrees C, away from light, and keep the vial dry until hospital staff reconstitutes it. The meropenem content is the same in both packs we make, so the tazobactam load is what separates them.

Buyers who want the lighter inhibitor load order the 1.125 gm tazobactam pack, while this 1.5 gm pack carries four times as much tazobactam behind the same gram of meropenem.

Meropenem and Tazobactam For Injection 1.5gm Price

Torso Healthcare does not sell this product online at a low order value. We take bulk orders and set the rate per order, so the cost per vial drops as the quantity goes up. Send your pack size, quantity, and destination market, and you get current rates for your order rather than a shelf price. The same applies to PCD pharma franchise partners working in a single territory.

Meropenem Tazobactam Brands

The combination sells in India under several brand names, many carrying an XP or TZ suffix on the parent meropenem brand, such as Merotec XP and Meropol XP. Through third-party manufacturing services, you put the same 1.5 gm pack on the market under your own brand name, carton, and artwork instead of paying a premium for an existing label. For a growing company, control over branding usually decides the margin. Our brand name of this injection is TOROMER TZ 1.5 Injection.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much meropenem and tazobactam does the 1.5 gm vial contain?

Each vial holds 1000 mg of meropenem and 500 mg of tazobactam, which together make up the 1.5 g strength. Meropenem is the antibiotic that kills bacteria. The tazobactam protects it from the enzymes that resistant bacteria produce.

Does tazobactam work against NDM-producing bacteria?

No. Tazobactam blocks many beta-lactamase enzymes, but it has no effect on metallo-beta-lactamases such as NDM. For infections caused by those organisms, treatment is guided by the culture and sensitivity report and the treating doctor, not by this combination.

Can I sell this injection under my own brand name?

Yes. Torso Healthcare supplies the 1.5 gm pack through third-party manufacturing and PCD franchise arrangements, so you market it under your own brand, carton, and artwork. We share the supporting documentation, including a certificate of analysis for each batch.

How is the price for a bulk order decided?

Price depends on order quantity, pack configuration, and destination market. Larger orders bring the per-vial rate down. Share those details, and the team sends a quote with current rates, since we take bulk orders rather than selling vials online.

Is a prescription needed for meropenem and tazobactam injection?

Yes. It is a Schedule H prescription medicine for hospital use. A qualified doctor prescribes it, and trained staff reconstitute and administer it. This page is written for pharmaceutical buyers and healthcare professionals, not for patient self-medication.
