Linezolid has been associated with reversible myelosuppression. Clinical trial data were evaluated for anemia, thrombocytopenia, and neutropenia. Thrombocytopenia and a slight increased risk for anemia were evident at greater than or equal to2 weeks of linezolid treatment. Hematologic abnormalities were consistent with mild, reversible, duration-dependent myelosuppression. Appropriate monitoring is warranted with linezolid use.
