Abstract

The clinical efficacy of oxazolidinones with a focus on linezolid application in urinary infections is presented. High activity of the drug in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis resistant to vancomycin is discussed. Most common situations for effective use of linezolid are defined: septic conditions and the long carriage of the mentioned pathogens.
