Tedizolid phosphate, the prodrug of the active antibiotic tedizolid, is an oxazolidinone for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections. Studies in a mouse thigh infection model demonstrated that tedizolid has improved potency and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) compared with those of linezolid.
