4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Nosocomial pneumonia
Community acquired pneumonia
Linezolid Krka is indicated in adults for the treatment of community
acquired pneumonia and nosocomial pneumonia when
known or suspected to be caused by susceptible Gram positive bacteria.
In determining whether Linezolid Krka is an
appropriate treatment, the results of microbiological tests or
information on the prevalence of resistance to antibacterial
agents among Gram positive bacteria should be taken into
consideration. (See section 5.1 for the appropriate organisms).
Linezolid is not active against infections caused by Gram negative
pathogens. Specific therapy against Gram negative
organisms must be initiated concomitantly if a Gram negative pathogen
is documented or suspected.
Complicated skin and soft tissue infections (see section 4.4).
Linezolid Krka is indicated in adults for the treatment of complicated
skin and soft tissue infections only when microbiological
testing has established that the infection is known to be caused by
susceptible Gram positive bacteria.
Linezolid is not active against infections caused by Gram negative
pathogens. Linezolid should only be used in patients with
complicated skin and soft tissue infections with known or possible
co-infection with Gram negative organisms if there are no
alternative treatment options available (see section 4.4). In these
circumstances treatment against Gram negative organisms
must be initiated concomitantly.
Linezolid should only be initiated in a hospital environment and after
consultation wit
