   Faropenem may reduce valproic acid levels, lowering seizure control. Doctors usually avoid using these medicines together.

3. Other Beta Lactam Antibiotics (Moderate)
   Using multiple beta lactams may increase the risk of allergic reactions or reduce treatment effectiveness. Inform your doctor if you are on similar antibiotics.

4. Oral Contraceptives (Moderate)
