pneumonia when known or suspected to be caused by susceptible Gram
positive bacteria. In determining
whether linezolid is an appropriate treatment, the results of

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 is indicated in adults for the treatment of complicated skin

available (see section 4.4). In these
circumstances treatment against Gram negative organisms must be
initiated concomitantly.
