Geocillin, a trade name is the sodium salt of the indanyl ester of carbenicillin disodium, which used to treat acute and chronic infections of the upper and lower urinary tract and in asymptomatic bacteriuria due to susceptible strains of bacteria. In addition, Geocillin was also indicated in the treatment of prostatitis due to susceptible strains of the following organisms: Escherichia coli; Enterococcus (S. faecalis); Proteus mirabilis; Enterobacter sp. Free carbenicillin is the predominant pharmacologically active fraction of Geocillin. After absorption, Geocillin is rapidly converted to carbenicillin by hydrolysis of the ester linkage. Carbenicillin exerts its antibacterial activity by interference with final cell wall synthesis of susceptible bacteria. Penicillins acylate the penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain by opening the lactam ring. This inactivation of the enzyme prevents the formation of a cross-link of two linear peptidoglycan strands, inhibiting the third and last stage of bacterial cell wall synthesis. In 2008 Pfizer has decided to discontinue the manufacturing of Geocillin (carbenicillin indanyl sodium)

Geocillin (carbenicillin indanyl sodium) is indicated in the treatment of acute and chronic infections of the upper and lower urinary tract and in asymptomatic bacteriuria due to susceptible strains of the following organisms: Escherichia coli; Proteus mirabilis; Morganella morganii (formerly Proteus morganii); Providencia rettgeri (formerly Proteus rettgeri); Proteus vulgaris; Pseudomonas Enterobacter; Enterococci. Geocillin is also indicated in the treatment of prostatitis due to susceptible strains of the following organisms: Escherichia coli; Enterococcus (S. faecalis); Proteus mirabilis; Enterobacter sp. WHEN HIGH AND RAPID BLOOD AND URINE LEVELS OF ANTIBIOTIC ARE INDICATED, THERAPY WITH GEOPEN (CARBENICILLIN DISODIUM) SHOULD BE INITIATED BY PARENTERAL ADMINISTRATION FOLLOWED, AT THE PHYSICIAN’S DISCRETION, BY ORAL THERAPY. To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain effectiveness of Geocillin and other antibacterial drugs, Geocillin should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy.
