Tedizolid (also known as TR-700, DA-7157) as is an active compound, which is produced by plasma or intestinal phosphatases, after administration of the drug, tedizolid phosphate either orally or intravenously. The mechanism of action of tedizolid occurs through inhibition of bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 23S ribosomal RNA of the 50S subunit, thereby preventing the formation of the 70S initiation complex and inhibiting protein synthesis.

Linezolid is an antibiotic used for the treatment of infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria that are resistant to other antibiotics. Linezolid appears to be unique in that it blocks the initiation of protein production. Most common adverse reactions include diarrhea, vomiting, headache, nausea, and anemia. Linezolid has the potential for interaction with adrenergic and serotonergic agents. And with monoamine oxidase inhibitors because it’s nonselective inhibitor of monoamine oxidase.

Radezolid (RX-1741) is a novel oxazolidinone antibiotic agent and is the first biaryloxazolidinone in clinical development. It is being developed by Rib-X Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for the treatment of serious multi-drug–resistant infections. Radezolid has completed two phase-II clinical trialsfor the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia; uncomplicated skin and skin structure infections. The mechanism of action for this drug seems to be an inhibition of 50S ribosomal subunit.
