[10/20/2011] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is updating the public on the potential drug interaction between linezolid and serotonergic psychiatric medications. Do not take a double dose to make Reprints or correspondence: Jeremy J. Taylor, Methodist University Hospital, Pharmacy Dept., 1265 Union Ave., Memphis, TN 38104 ( Conversely, only 1 patient in the low-probability group met any of the Boyer criteria, whereas both patients in the high-probability group met Boyer criteria for serotonin syndrome. These explanations included increased anxiety related to severe pain, multiple medical problems with multiple surgical procedures and symptoms that did not present together, severe sepsis with a significant drop of hemoglobin and multiple blood transfusions, and mental status changes attributed to increased narcotic doses of fentanyl.Two patients (3%) were classified as having low probability of serotonin syndrome.

Association between the risk for cardiovascular events and antiviral treatment for herpes zoster Search for other works by this author on: The FDA reports that it is currently unknown whether co-administration of linezolid in patients taking other psychiatric drugs carries a comparable risk.

Patients without a documented diagnosis were further subdivided according to their likelihood of serotonin syndrome based on documented clinical criteria. Spontaneous reports of serotonin syndrome associated with co-administration of ZYVOX and serotonergic agents, including antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), have been reported” [Review of cases of linezolid and serotonergic interactions with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or venlafaxine that potentially resulted in serotonin syndrome.Review of cases of linezolid and serotonergic interactions with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or venlafaxine that potentially resulted in serotonin syndrome.In addition, although it is not explicitly contraindicated, Micromedex strongly cautions against concurrent use of linezolid and SSRIs: “Concurrent use of linezolid and citalopram should be approached with caution. © 2015 Handbook of Lower Extremity Infections. Signs and symptoms of serotonin syndrome may appear anywhere from 1 h to several days after exposure to serotonergic agents.

The Sternbach criteria and Boyer algorithm for diagnosis of serotonin syndrome were used to identify clinical features of serotonin syndrome. A review of the literature reveals a number of isolated case reports of SS in patients receiving linezolid. Risk of serotonin syndrome especially with clomipramine Increases are variable but can be in the order of 3–4 times and more.
