Chemistry:Sutezolid
From HandWiki
Sutezolid is an investigational new drug that is being evaluated for the treatment of extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis.[1] It differs from linezolid by replacement of the morpholine oxygen with a sulfur atom. Like linezolid, sutezolid is a bacterial protein synthesis inhibitor. In preclinical studies, sutezolid demonstrated superior antituberculosis activity compared to linezolid.[2]
