( 1.1 ) Complicated urinary tract infections, including pyelonephritis (cUTI) in patients who have limited or no alternative treatment options. ( 1.2 ) Complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAI) in patients who have limited or no alternative treatment options. ( 1.3 ) Approval of the cUTI and cIAI indications is based on limited clinical safety and efficacy data for RECARBRIO.

RECARBRIO is not recommended in pediatric patients weighing less than 30 kg with renal impairment. ( 1.4 , 2.3 ). Usage to Reduce Development of Drug-Resistant Bacteria To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of RECARBRIO and other antibacterial drugs, RECARBRIO should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria. ( 1.5 ) 1.1 Hospital-acquired Bacterial Pneumonia and Ventilator-associated Bacterial Pneumonia (HABP/VABP) RECARBRIO ® is indicated in adult and pediatric patients weighing at least 2 kg for the treatment of hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia, caused by the following susceptible gram-negative microorganisms: Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumannii complex, Enterobacter cloacae , Escherichia coli , Haemophilus influenzae , Klebsiella aerogenes, Klebsiella oxytoca, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and
