“…Several studies reported that the incidence of linezolid-induced thrombocytopenia was high (7.5-64.7%) [4,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. Risk factors for the development of thrombocytopenia during linezolid therapy include impaired renal function [7,8,10,11,[16][17][18][19][20], chronic liver disease [20,21], the duration of linezolid therapy (≥14 days) [6,7] and respiratory tract infection [7]. Furthermore, recent studies reported that the incidence of linezolid-induced thrombocytopenia was significantly higher in patients with impaired renal function than in patients with normal renal function [7,8,16,17].…”

“…These disorders are also associated with increased risk of serious infections, including those due to drug-resistant Gram-positive pathogens (10,12,13), and clinically significant adverse effects caused by antibacterial treatment itself (10,14,15). Because of aging populations, the prevalences of chronic kidney disease (16) and chronic liver disease (17) are increasing.…”

“…The authors hypothesized that hepatic insufficiency increased the risk for hyperlactemia and likewise parallels Case 3 in the current communication. Hepatic dysfunction has also been implicated in thrombocytopenia development while receiving linezolid, another adverse effect of long-term administration 8 . Moreover, renal insufficiency has also been implicated in delayed linezolid clearance 9 , and may have influenced toxicity onset in our patients as all had elevated serum creatinine.…”
