Instructions for use INVANZ® (INVANZ)
A carbapenem antibiotic, 1-β methyl-carbapenem is a long-acting beta-lactam antibiotic for parenteral administration with activity against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria.
The bactericidal activity of ertapenem is due to inhibition of cell wall synthesis and is mediated by its binding to penicillin binding proteins (PBPs). In Escherichia coli, it exhibits strong affinity for PBPs 1a, 1b, 2, 3, 4 and 5, with a preference for PBPs 2 and 3. Ertapenem has significant resistance to most classes of β-lactamases (including penicillinases, cephalosporinases and β-lactamases extended spectrum, but not metallo-β-lactamase).
Invanz® is effective against most strains of the following microorganisms in vitro and in infections caused by them.
Active against
aerobic and facultative anaerobic gram-positive microorganisms:
Staphylococcus aureus (including strains that produce penicillinase /methicillin-resistant staphylococci are resistant/), Streptococcus agalactiae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes.

a The current lack of data on resistant strains makes it impossible to define any category as anything other than “susceptible.” If the MIC results of a strain can be interpreted as “non-susceptible”, these strains require further investigation.
b Streptococcus pneumoniae sensitive to penicillin (MIC <0.06 µg/ml) may be considered sensitive to ertapenem. Testing of isolates with intermediate susceptibility to penicillin or penicillin-resistant isolates for susceptibility to ertapenem is not recommended because reliable interpretative criteria for ertapenem are not available.
c These zone diameter interpretation standards apply only to tests using Mueller-Hinton agar supplemented with 5% sheep blood inoculated with a suspension of pure colonies incubated in 5% CO2 at 35°C for 20-24 hours.
d Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates should be tested using a 1 μg oxacillin disk. Isolates with zone sizes ≥20 mm are susceptible to penicillin and may be considered susceptible to ertapenem.
e Streptococcus spp., which are sensitive to penicillin (MIC≤0.12 µg/ml) can be considered sensitive to ertapenem. Testing of isolates with intermediate susceptibility to penicillin or penicillin-resistant isolates for susceptibility to ertapenem is not recommended because reliable interpretative criteria for ertapenem are not available.
fStreptococcus spp. should be tested using a 10 unit penicillin disk. Isolates with zone sizes ≤28 mm are susceptible to penicillin and may be considered susceptible to ertapenem.
