Acenocoumarol is one of the most common drugs used as a part of the management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Linezolid, on the other hand, is an antibiotic prescribed post-operatively. Reports of any interaction between the two are very few. Here, we are presenting four case reports of patients admitted to the Cardio Thoracic and Vascular Surgery Department of a tertiary healthcare center in North East India. Drug-drug interactions can lead to long-term and life-threatening effects, and also hamper the management of patients post-operatively. Due to the limited literature, assessing such interactions is difficult. The cases reported here were treated with fresh frozen plasma, and the patients responded well to the treatment and were discharged without further complications.
