Maximum patient volume for sluice References Additional remarks Het is een geneesmiddel met een relatief smal antimicrobieel spectrum , wat past bij het Nederlandse beleid om carbapenem-sparend voor te schrijven. Op dit moment wordt voornamelijk meropenem voorgeschreven wat mogelijk ook goedkoper zal zijn dan Zerbaxa. De meeste laboratoria zullen ook niet in de standaard testen en dat werkt ook beperkend. Rekening houdend met deze factoren wordt het gebruik ingeschat op 30 patiënten per jaar. Expected cost per patient per year Cost References medicijnkosten.nl Additional remarks Prijs incl.
