What is Vabomere?

Vabomere is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by The Medicines Company. Vabomere is a combination of meropenem, a penem antibacterial, and vaborbactam a beta-lactamase inhibitor used to treat patients 18 years of age and older with complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) including pyelonephritis caused by Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase, and Enterobacter cloacae species complex.

To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacterial infections to Vabomere and other antibacterial drugs, you should only use it to treat or prevent infections that are proven or suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria.

What doses of Vabomere are available?

Vabomere is available as an injection for intravenous use, in the following doses: 2 grams as a sterile powder for constitution in single-dose vials containing meropenem 1 gram and vaborbactam 1 gram.

Please see the full prescribing information and always speak with your healthcare provider about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.

Vabomere active ingredients

Vabomere contains meropenem/vaborbactam as the active ingredients. Meropenem, a carbapenem antibacterial agent, prevents bacterial cell-wall synthesis in susceptible pathogens by blocking penicillin-binding proteins causing cell death. Vaborbactam is a boronic acid beta-lactamase inhibitor with no antibacterial effects. It works by stopping beta-lactamases, such as KPCs, from breaking down meropenem.
