Can Meropenem be used via Intra perintoneal route? May i know the standard recommended dose for Intra perintoneal (IP)meropenem?

Hi, I have a PD pt. who suffers from drain and fill pain. At her prior dialysis unit, she was given NaBicarb to inject into her fill bags, and it seemed to help. However, she didn't have to pay for it. Here, she is having to pay for it and she is on a fixed income, so I'm wondering if she first, may have another option to eliminate the pain? Thanks
I have a patient whose job is very physical. What would any of you recommend to help prevent hernia development or membrane rupture?

Yes, we have been using IP meropenem with good outcome. According to the ISPD peritonitis guideline, the IP dose is 400 mg / bag.
