Zyvox(TM) (linezolid)

http://www.webmolecules.com/cgi-bin/webmolpage.cgi?zyvox.m3d

Formula: c16h20fn3o4 Weight: 337.351(3) g/mol

The FDA just approved Zyvox (linezolid), the first antibacterial
drug in a new class to treat infections associated with vancomycin-
resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF), including cases with
bloodstream infection. Zyvox also received approval for treatment
of hospital-acquired pneumonia and complicated skin and skin
structure infections, including cases due to methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). In addition, approval was granted for
treatment of community-acquired pneumonia and uncomplicated skin
and skin structure infections.

Infections due to Enterococcus faecium and MRSA are a particular
problem in hospitalized or immuno-compromised individuals. These
organisms are often resistant to multiple antibiotics. Vancomycin
has, for many years, served as the treatment of last resort for
these infections. But its effectiveness has fallen in recent years
as drug-resistant strains have appeared.

Zyvox is the first in a new class of synthetic drugs (oxazolidinones).
Pharmacia and Upjohn, based in Kalamazoo, Mich., developed Zyvox and
will market it in the United States.
