Overview
11 DESCRIPTION ORLYNVAH (sulopenem etzadroxil and probenecid) tablets contain sulopenem etzadroxil, a penem antibacterial drug, and probenecid, a renal tubular transport inhibitor. The chemical name of sulopenem etzadroxil is 4-Thia-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid, 6-[(1 R )-1- hydroxyethyl]-7-oxo-3-[[(1 R ,3 S )- tetrahydro-1-oxido-3-thienyl]thio]-, (2-ethyl-1-oxobutoxy)methyl...
Mechanism of Action
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action ORLYNVAH is a combination of sulopenem etzadroxil, a penem antibacterial drug [see Microbiology 12.4 ] and probenecid, a renal tubular transport inhibitor. Probenecid inhibits OAT3-mediated renal clearance of sulopenem, resulting in increased plasma concentrations of sulopenem . 12.2 Pharmacodynamics Similar to other beta-lactam antimicrobial drugs, the percentage of time that unbound plasma concentrations of sulopenem exceed the sulopenem minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against the infecting organism has been shown to best correlate with efficacy in in vitro models of infection.
Indications
- 1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE ORLYNVAH, a combination of sulopenem etzadroxil, a penem antibacterial, and probenecid, a renal tubular transport inhibitor, is indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infections (uUTI) caused by the designated microorganisms Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, or Proteus mirabilis in adult women who have limited or no alternative oral antibacterial treatment options.
