                                 sulopenem is an approved drug (FDA (2024)) Compound class: 
                                                            Synthetic organic
                                 
                                    
                                        Comment: Sulopenem is a β-lactam (carbapenem) antibacterial [4]. It has a broad-spectrum of activity against Gram-negative, Gram-positive and anaerobic bacteria, including multi-drug resistant Gram-negative infections in both the hospital and community settings. Sulopenem is relatively stable against hydrolysis by various β-lactamases. It is being developed for oral and parenteral administration.
