Salicylate reduces susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to multiple antituberculosis drugs.
Salicylate induces multiple antibiotic resistance in various bacterial species. Here we investigated the effect of salicylate on the susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to a range of antituberculosis (anti-TB) drugs. In the presence of salicylate, the killing effects of isoniazid (INH), rifampin (RMP), ethambutol (EMB), streptomycin (STR), and p-aminosalicylate (PAS) were reduced, as s...
متن کاملPrimary drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to antituberculosis drugs.
Thirty two positive sputa from 104 untreated cases of pulmonary tuberculosis, were tested for sensitivities against antituberculosis drugs. Twenty four were positive on direct smear as well as culture while 8 were only culture positive. Nine (28%) were resistant to Isoniazid, 3 (9.4%) to Streptomycin and 2 (6.3%) were resistant to both the drugs. All the 32 were sensitive to Rifampicin and Etha...

متن کاملAntituberculosis drugs and hepatotoxicity.
Isoniazid, pyrazinamide and rifampicin have hepatotoxic potential, and can lead to such reactions during antituberculosis chemotherapy. Most of the hepatotoxic reactions are dose-related; some are, however, caused by drug hypersensitivity. The immunogenetics of antituberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity, especially inclusive of acetylaor phenotype polymorphism, have been increasingly unravell...
