Health Technology Assessment of Oxazolidinones for MRSA-Associated Complicated Skin and Soft Tissue Infections

Based on the comprehensive evaluation across five key dimensions, the recommended prioritization of oxazolidinone antibiotics is as follows: tedizolid, linezolid, and contezolid. The ranking was primarily driven by tedizolid's once-daily dosing and lowest total course cost, linezolid's pediatric indication and widespread availability, and contezolid's superior safety profile, although its overall score was limited by higher cost and lack of guideline recommendations. This study recommends the selection of tedizolid, linezolid, and contezolid for use in medical institutions during the introduction and application of oxazolidinone antibiotics.
