With their improved understanding of how pyrazinamide actually works at the molecular level, Barry said scientists will be able to design a more potent form of the drug that could shorten the duration of TB treatment from six months to just two. ❋ Unknown (2011)
The drug "pyrazinamide" is widely used in combination with other drugs to treat active tuberculosis infections. ❋ Unknown (2011)
He said scientists have long known that pyrazinamide, by itself, does not destroy the active TB bacterium. ❋ Unknown (2011)
“A combination of isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, streptomycin and ethambutol,” Packard told him. ❋ Thomas Greanias (2010)
Second, once identified, people with TB are treated with one or more antibiotics that are effective against the bacteria: specifically, isoniazid (or INH), rifampin, ethambutal or pyrazinamide. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Six months of treatment with several antitubercular drugs (isoniazid, rifampin and pyrazinamide are the most common) costs under $300 and will almost always cure TB. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The most common anti-TB drugs are isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide, streptomycin and ethambutol. ❋ Unknown (2000)
The medicines usually given to treat TB include ethambutol, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, rifampicin, streptomycin, and thiacetazone. ❋ Unknown (1997)
She should also avoid taking pyrazinamide whenever possible, because its effect on the baby is not known. ❋ Unknown (1997)
Some medicines for tuberculosis are expensive (rifampin, pyrazinamide, ethambutol) if you buy them in a pharmacy. ❋ Unknown (1993)
Then stop taking pyrazinamide, but continue using rifampin, isoniazid, and ethambutol for another 4 months. ❋ Unknown (1993)
Do not give pyrazinamide or streptomycin during pregnancy ❋ Unknown (1993)
Taking pyrazinamide with INH and rifampin can shorten the time of treatment. ❋ Unknown (1993)
Combine isoniazid, rifampin, streptomycin, and pyrazinamide for 2 months. ❋ Unknown (1993)
Give isoniazid, rifampin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide for 2 months. ❋ Unknown (1993)
Dosage for pyrazinamide - (20 to 30 mg./kg./day): - using tablets of 500 mg. ❋ Unknown (1993)
In this study, we determined the percentage of strains possessing pyrazinamide resistance among pan-susceptible M. tuberculosis and MDR-TB isolates by using the pyrazinamidase assay, BACTEC MGIT 960 PZA method and pncA sequencing, and assessed the correlation in the data generated using these methods. ❋ Unknown (2010)
