| Bioactivity | Contezolid (MRX-I), a new and orally active oxazolidinone, is an antibiotic in study for complicated skin and soft tissue infections (cSSTI) caused by resistant Gram-positive bacteria. Contezolid (MRX-I) markedly reduces potential for myelosuppression and monoamine oxidase inhibition (MAOI)[1][2]. |
| Invitro | Contezolid (MRX-I) is highly potent against all Grampositive clinical isolates of staphylococci, streptococci, and enterococci, including MDR organisms such as MRSA, methicilline-resistant Streptococcus epidermidis (MRSE), penicillin-resistant Streptococci (PRSP), and VRE[2]. |
