Talk:Linezolid
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Are you sure that this is the only antibiotic that works by inhibiting protein synthesis? Macrolides, aminoglycosides, chloramphenicol, and tetracycline are all protein synthesis inhibitors, not just linezolid.
Streptogramins too, but these generally inhibit protein elongation, not initiation, I think
[edit] Cost
I really think the cost of this medication is worthy of a mention. I just checked with my insurance it costs $1,209.07 for 20 600mg pills. That is over $40/pill--K8TEK 13:43, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
