Linezolid has been suggested as the bacteria are resistant to the others as per the report. As linezolid is a category C drug and you feel relieved of your symptoms, discuss with your doctor if linezolid is essential or you can continue with previous medicines.

Your doctor has prescribed linezolid because you are resistant to all other medications.
