Abstract
The Federal clinical recommendations on treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis with multidrug-resistanсe to micobacteruim tuberculosis contain of algorhythm of actions to correct negative side effects appearing in the process of chemotherapy after linezolid prescription. According to this algorhythm, if the negative side effects in form of myelosuppression (inhibition of blood development) or neuropathies are developing, administration of linezolid can be abolished, and the drug prescription can be recovered beginning the dose of 300 mg per day after normalization of blood analysis, under blood analysis control, and then with 2-fold increase of oral dose (300 mg twice a day) to prevent repetitive development of negative side effect. In this case, dispensary prescription of linezolid 300 mg is permitted for tuberculosis treatment. In the paper, a comparative analysis of usage of different doses of linezolid for tuberculosis treatment with argumentation to use median (300 mg) doses of linezolid has been done.
