Yes,can be taken

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

Since there is NO known drug interactions between linezolid with paracetamol,montelukast and levocetrizine. They can be taken together as there is no case reported with drug interactions between all these.

Usually,linezolid is given methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureua (MRSA) skin and soft tissue infection.
