Early and Extended Early Bactericidal Activity of Linezolid in Pulmonary Tuberculosis

Abstract

Linezolid has modest early bactericidal activity against rapidly dividing tubercle bacilli in patients with cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis during the first 2 days of administration, but little extended early bactericidal activity. Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT00396084).
