Abstract

With growing maternal and congenital syphilis epidemics and shortages of benzathine penicillin, alternative syphilis treatments are needed. Linezolid has shown efficacy against syphilis in animal models. This review found no teratogenic effects. Some adverse effects were seen in animals, but none were reported in a small number of human studies.
