Abstrakt: Cefepime-enmetazobactam is a novel β-lactam–β-lactamase inhibitor combination with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against a range of multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. This agent is being developed for a range of serious hospital infections. An understanding of the extent of partitioning of β-lactam–β-lactamase inhibitor combinations into the human lung is required to better understand the potential role of cefepime-enmetazobactam for the treatment of nosocomial pneumonia.
