The effect of rifampin on the steady-state pharmacokinetics of linezolid was evaluated in an open-label, multiple-dose, crossover study in 16 healthy subjects. When coadministered with rifampin, area under the plasma concentration-time curve over the dosing interval and maximum concentration values for linezolid were reduced approximately 32% and 21%, respectively.
