Meropenem-d6 (SM 7338-d6) is the deuterium labeled Meropenem. Meropenem (SM 7338) is a carbapenemantibioticwith broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Meropenem has activity against susceptible and resistantN. gonorrhoeae(MIC value of 0.02-0.06 mg/mL),H. influenzae(MIC value of 0.03-0.12 mg/mL), andH. ducreyi(MIC value of 0.015-0.12 mg/mL)^[1][2].

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].
