*Based mainly on PK/PD considerations, a 4-hour infusion time may be
more suitable for infection with
less susceptible pathogens (see Pharmacodynamic Properties). This
dosing regimen should also be
considered in particularly severe infections.
For infusion solution shelf life see Shelf Life.
The usual treatment duration of doripenem therapy is 5-14 days and
should be guided by the severity,
site of the infection and the patient’s clinical response. Doripenem
was given for up to 14 days in
clinical studies and the
safety
of
longer durations of therapy
has not been established. After
commencing treatment with intravenous doripenem, a switch to
appropriate oral therapy to complete
the treatment course is possible once clinical improvement has been
establised.
