Consumer:

In patients undergoing hemodialysis, carbapenems are recommended only if the benefit outweighs the potential risk of seizures. Carbapenems are removed by hemodialysis and should be administered after dialysis to avoid premature removal of the drug. There is not enough information regarding the use of some carbapenems such as meropenem for injection in patients on dialysis.
