Faroprat Er 300 Tablet 6 contains faropenem (300 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Inhibits Bacterial Cell Wall Synthesis: Faropenem works by binding to and inactivating penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), enzymes required for the cross-linking of peptidoglycan chains in the bacterial cell wall. This weakening of the cell wall leads to cell lysis and death.
• Broad Spectrum Activity: Faropenem has activity against a wide range of bacteria, including gram-positive, gram-negative, and anaerobic pathogens.
• Maintains Therapeutic Levels: The extended-release formulation allows faropenem to stay longer in the body above the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for target organisms, ensuring sustained effectiveness against bacteria.
