Linezolid induces ring sideroblasts
Linezolid, an oxazolidinone antibiotic approved for the treatment of respiratory tract and skin infection caused by Gram-positive bacteria, is known to have mitochondrial toxicity.[1][1] Mitochondrial toxicity is explained by linezolid’s specific binding to mitochondrial ribosomes, leading ...
