Study Arms (3)

MEROPENEM

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After enrollment, patients of MEROPENEM arm will receive an initial 2g bolus of MEROPENEM and 2g infusion over 3 hours every eight hours, during 48 hours, without modification of rhythm and dose according to renal function.

Drug: MEROPENEM

PIPERACILLIN-TAZOBACTAM

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After enrollment, patients of PIPERACILLIN - TAZOBACTAM arm will receive an initial 4g bolus of PIPERACILLIN - TAZOBACTAM and a 16g continuous infusion per day, during 48 hours, without modification of rhythm and dose according to renal function.

Drug: PIPERACILLIN-TAZOBACTAM

CEFEPIME

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After enrollment, patients of CEFEPIME arm will receive an initial 2g bolus of CEFEPIME and a 6g continuous infusion per day, during 48 hours, without modification of rhythm and dose according to renal function.

Drug: CEFEPIME
