Abstract: Compositions and methods for the treatment of tuberculosis, as well as other mycobacterial and gram positive bacterial infections are disclosed. These compositions contain a highly potent and selective oxazolidinone encapsulated with high efficiency to maximize dosing potential of low toxicity drugs, and are stable in the presence of plasma. The compositions are long circulating and retain their encapsulated drug while in the circulation following intravenous dosing to allow for efficient accumulation at the site of the bacterial or mycobacterial infection. The high doses that can be achieved when combined with the long circulating properties and highly stable retention of the drug allow for a reduced frequency of administration when compared to daily or twice daily administrations of other drugs typically utilized to treat these infections.
