Linezolid is a member of a new class of antibacterial agent known as an oxazolidinone and is useful in treating infections caused by gram positive bacteria including gram positive infections that are resistant to other gram positive antibacterial agents.
Often in medical treatment a physician does not know for sure whether or not a bacterial infection is caused by gram positive bacteria or gram negative bacteria or both. Therefore, often a physician desires to use an agent(s) which are effective against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria. Hence, often a physician will combine two agents, one useful against gram positive bacteria and the other useful against gram negative bacteria. The following agents are known to be useful against gram negative bacteria, gentamicin, tobramycin, aztreonam. The following antibacterial agents are known as 'broad spectrum antibacterials" because they are active against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria, cefazolin, ceftazidime, piperacilhn, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin.
If one combines sterile solutions of two different agents it is quite possible that there will not be chemical or physical compatibility between the two different sterile solutions and/or agents. In fact, for this very reason, the corporation conducting the clinical trials on linezolid specifically warned physicians against combining the sterile solution of linezolid and other antibacterial agents.
It now has been found that there is both chemical and physical stability between linezolid sterile solution and sterile solutions of the following antibacterial agents; aminoglycosides, cephalosporins, aztreonam, quinolones and penicillins and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof where such exist. It is preferred that the antibacterial agent be selected from the group consisting of gentamicin, tobramycin, aztreonam, cefazolin, ceftazidime, piperacilhn, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin.
When combining an aqueous composition of linezolid with an aqueous composition of the other antibacterial agents the concentration of both linezolid and the other antibacterial agents will be affected by a dilution factor as is well known to those skilled in the art. The actual final concentration of linezolid and/or the other antibacterial agents is not very important. The concentration can vary considerably. What is critical is that the patient receive an antibacterial effective amount of linezolid and an antibacterial effective amount of the other antibacterial agent. The effective amounts for each of these agents, for adults, is as follows: linezolid (about 200 mg to about 600 mg/dose), gentamicin (about 1 mg/kg to about 7.5 mg/kg/dose), tobramycin (about 1 mg/kg to about 7.5 mg/kg/dose), aztreonam (about 500 mg to about 2 g/dose), ciprofloxacin (about 200 mg to about 400 mg/dose), ofloxacin (about 200 mg to about 400 mg/dose), levofloxacin (about 250 mg to about 500 mg/dose), piperacilhn sodium (about 2 g to about 4 g/dose), piperacillin/tazobactam (about 2 g to about 4 g/dose based on piperacilhn), ceftazidime (about 250 mg to about 2 g/dose) and cefazolin (about 500 mg to about 1 g/dose). One skilled in the art would be able to calculate an effective amount for children (of various ages and weights) as well as the elderly.
It is preferred that the aqueous pharmaceutical composition of the present invention be an aqueous solution. It is further preferred that the aqueous solution be a sterile solution.
There are different ways that one skilled in the art could make an aqueous pharmaceutical composition of linezolid and an antibacterial agent selected from the group consisting of gentamicin, tobramycin, aztreonam, cefazolin, ceftazidime, piperacilhn, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin. First, one can combine an aqueous pharmaceutical composition of linezolid and an aqueous pharmaceutical composition of one of the following agents; gentamicin, tobramycin, aztreonam, cefazolin, ceftazidime, piperacilhn, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin. If this is done it must be realized that the concentration of each antibacterial agent is being diluted by the other as explained above. Alternatively, so as not to dilute the linezolid aqueous pharmaceutical composition, it is preferred to add solid antibacterial agent selected from the group consisting of gentamicin, tobramycin, aztreonam, cefazolin, ceftazidime, piperacilhn, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin to the linezolid aqueous pharmaceutical composition. Also so as not to dilute an aqueous pharmaceutical composition of one of the following antibacterial agents, gentamicin, tobramycin, aztreonam, cefazolin, ceftazidime, piperacilhn, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin, solid linezolid powder can be added to the aqueous pharmaceutical composition of one of the other antibacterial agents. In addition, should more than one of the non-linezolid antibacterial agents be desired for use with linezolid, it can be added in the same way. Besides adding solid antibacterial agent to a solution, to keep the dilution factor low, the solid antibacterial agent or linezolid can be suspended or dissolved in an appropriate solvent such as water, ethanol, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, DMSO, DMAC, DMI, glycerine and M-pyrol and mixtures thereof. The concentrate can then be added to the aqueous pharmaceutical composition. The advantage of admixing is to lower the total volume administered and/or to use the same infusion line. The lowering of the total volume to be given to the patient is accomplished in a number of ways by using the admixing of the present invention. For example, an number of antibacterial agents come as concentrates to be diluted with acceptable diluents. With these concentrates the diluent used is the linezolid sterile solution there by saving the volume of diluent normally used to dilute the other antibacterial agent. Alternatively, other antibacterial agents are marketed as sterile powders which are then compounded into concentrates for dilution. With these sterile powders the first step is performed in making the concentrate. But rather then using a diluent that has no active ingredient, the concentrate is added to linezolid sterile solution (as described above). This reduces the overall volume of aqueous composition administered to the patient. In situations where the antibacterial agent is marketed as a ready to use large volume parenteral sterile solution, there is no way to reduce the volume unless it is combined with linezolid in a concentrated form. If it is combined with sterile aqueous linezolid solution the advantage is that the same infusion line can be used for administering both the linezolid and the other antibacterial agent.
US Patent 5,688,792 discloses that oxazolidinones can be administered IV. The preferred formulation for linezolid IV solution is:
Linezolid 2.0 mg/mL

The linezolid TV solution is formulated by heating water for injection to 60°. Next the sodium citrate, citric acid and dextrose are added and stirred until dissolved. An aqueous slurry of linezolid is added to the previous mixture and stirred until dissolved. The mixture is cooled to 25° with stirring. The pH is measured and adjusted if necessary. Last the mixture is brought to volume, if necessary, with water for injection. The mixture is filtered, filled into infusion containers, over wrapped and terminally moist heat sterilized. The aqueous solution for TV administration can be placed in the container which is selected from the group consisting of a bag, a bottle, a vial, a large volume parenteral, a small volume parenteral, a prefilled syringe and a cassette. It is realized that a vial is a bottle. However, those skilled in the art use the term "bottle" to refers to larger bottles and "vials" to refer to smaller bottles. It is preferred that the container be a bag, a bottle, a vial or a prefilled syringe. It is more preferred that the container be a bag or bottle. It is most preferred that the container be a bag. The shape and/or size of the container is unimportant. It is preferred that the container be a bag sufficient to hold 25 to 2,000 mL of TV solution. It is preferred that the linezolid mixture be put in bags in amounts of 100, 200 or 300 mL of solution however smaller or larger volumes are acceptable.
It is well known to those skilled in the art that pharmaceutical agents administered TV must be sterile. While there are a number of methods to sterilize an TV solution, it is preferred to terminally moist heat or steam sterilize IV solutions of oxazolidinones including those of linezolid. When the term terminally "moist heat sterilize" is used, it refers to and includes steam sterilization.
When terminally moist heat sterilizing an TV solution, the solution is placed in the container in which (1) it will be stored and then transferred to the container from which it will ultimately be administered, or (2) stored and then ultimately administered from the same container to deliver the TV solution to the patient. Therefore, it is imperative that the pharmaceutically active ingredient (oxazolidinone, linezolid) not react with the container in which it is to be terminally moist heat sterilized and stored/stored-administered. It has been found that when the container-solution contact surface is made of at least 50% polyolefin there is significantly much less loss of linezolid during and following terminal moist heat sterilization. What is essential is that the container- solution contact surface material be primarily a polyolefin; the remainder of the container can be made from polyolefin or other materials. It is preferred that the container-solution contact surface is made of from about 50 to about 100% polyolefin. It is more preferred that the container-solution contact surface is made of from about 70 to about 90% polyolefin. It is more preferred that the container-solution contact surface is made of from about 80% polyolefin. It is even more preferred that the container-solution contact surface is made of polyolefin. Polyolefins include, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutenes, polyisoprenes and polypentenes and copolymers and mixtures thereof. It is preferred that the polyolefin be selected from the group consisting of polyethylene and polypropylene It is more preferred that the polyolefin be polypropylene or mixture of polypropylene and polyethylene
The exact dosage and frequency of administration of the aqueous pharmaceutical composition depends on the particular combination of linezolid and antibacterial agent used, the particular condition being treated, the severity ot the condition being treated, the age, weight, general physical condition of the particular patient, other medication the individual may be taking as is well known to those skilled in the art and can be more accurately determined by measuring the blood level or concentration of the antibacterial agents in the patient's blood and/or the patient's response to the particular condition being treated
