Liod-600 Tablet is an antibiotic medication used to treat bacterial infections of the skin and lungs (pneumonia). It is also used to treat infections that are resistant to other antibiotics, such as vancomycin-resistant enterococcal infections.
Liod-600 Tablet contains Linezolid (an antibiotic), which works by stopping the bacteria from making proteins necessary for their growth and multiplication, ultimately killing the bacteria. Thus, it helps treat the bacterial infection.
Diarrhoea might be a side effect of Liod-600 Tablet. Drink lots of fluids and eat non-spicy food if you experience diarrhoea. If you find blood in stools (tarry stools) or if you have prolonged diarrhoea with abdominal pain, stop taking Liod-600 Tablet and consult your doctor. Do not take anti-diarrheal medicine on your own.
It is recommended to complete the course of Liod-600 Tablet even if you feel better, as it is an antibiotic, and leaving it in between may lead to even more severe infection. To treat your condition effectively, continue taking Liod-600 Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it.
Liod-600 Tablet may cause thrush or candidiasis, which is a fungal infection occurring due to the overgrowth of yeast-like fungus in the mouth or throat. Regularly rinse your mouth with water to prevent the growth of fungus.
Do not take Liod-600 Tablet on your own, as self-medication may lead to antibiotic resistance, in which antibiotics fail to act against specific bacterial infections.
Liod-600 Tablet may affect certain laboratory test results, such as blood tests, blood sugar tests, and liver and kidney function tests. Inform the person doing the tests that you are taking Liod-600 Tablet.
Liod-600 Tablet may cause anaemia due to a decrease in the number of red blood cells. This could also cause unexplained bleeding or bruising. Consult your doctor if you experience unexplained bleeding or bruising.
Consult your doctor before taking Liod-600 Tablet if you have hypertension (high blood pressure), as it may cause an increase in blood pressure.
You should avoid taking large quantities of food that contains high tyramine. Foods that are fermented, cured, aged or spoiled contain a high amount of tyramine, e.g. cheese, red wine, pickles, overripe fruits, etc. Consuming tyramine while taking Linezolid can result in an elevation of blood pressure, which may result in an emergency.
You should take it twice a day, every 12 hours, for example, at 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. You can take it before, with, or after food. Your doctor or clinician will determine the duration of the treatment course.
