Neopem Tablet 150 mg contains Faropenem, a novel oral beta-lactam antibiotic belonging to the penem class. It is designed for the effective treatment of a wide range of bacterial infections caused by susceptible organisms, including strains that are resistant to many conventional antibiotics. Due to its broad spectrum of activity and oral convenience, Neopem Tablet is particularly useful in both community-acquired and hospital-associated infections.

Faropenem acts by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis through binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), leading to bacterial cell lysis and death. It demonstrates excellent stability against many beta-lactamases, making it effective against organisms that may be resistant to penicillins and cephalosporins.
