Product Name

Linezolid Tablets 600mg

 

Active Ingredient

Each tablet contains Linezolid 600mg.

 

Description

Linezolid Tablets 600mg are an oxazolidinone-class antibiotic used to treat infections caused by gram-positive bacteria, including resistant strains such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE). It is effective in treating severe infections where other antibiotics may fail.

 

Indications

Linezolid is indicated for the treatment of the following infections caused by susceptible gram-positive bacteria:

• Nosocomial pneumonia

• Community-acquired pneumonia

• Skin and soft tissue infections (e.g., cellulitis, diabetic foot infections)

• Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) infections

• Complicated infections (e.g., bacteremia, osteomyelitis)

 

Dosage and Administration

• Adults and adolescents (≥12 years): 600mg every 12 hours, orally or intravenously.

• Duration of treatment: Typically 10-14 days, depending on the infection type and severity.

• Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with water. Can be taken with or without food.

 

Side Effects

Common side effects may include:

• Gastrointestinal disturbances (e.g., nausea, vomiting, diarrhea)

• Headache or dizziness

• Myelosuppression (e.g., anemia, thrombocytopenia) with prolonged use

Serious side effects (e.g., lactic acidosis, serotonin syndrome, optic neuropathy) are rare but require immediate medical attention.

 

Contraindications

• Hypersensitivity to linezolid or any component of the formulation.

• Concurrent use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) or within 2 weeks of discontinuation.

• Uncontrolled hypertension, pheochromocytoma, or thyrotoxicosis.

 

Precautions

• Consult a doctor before use if you have a history of bone marrow suppression, serotonin syndrome, or seizures.

• Monitor blood counts regularly during prolonged use (beyond 2 weeks).

• Avoid foods high in tyramine (e.g., aged cheese, cured meats) to reduce the risk of hypertensive crisis.

 

Drug Interactions

• Serotonergic drugs (e.g., SSRIs, SNRIs, TCAs): May increase the risk of serotonin syndrome.

• Adrenergic agents (e.g., pseudoephedrine): May potentiate pressor effects.

• MAO inhibitors: Contraindicated due to the risk of hypertensive crisis.

 

Storage
