Isoniazid induced childhood diabetes: A rare phenomenon
نویسندگان
چکیده
Drugs raise blood glucose concentrations via two broad mechanisms: By reducing insulin biosynthesis or secretion, or by reducing tissue sensitivity to insulin. Until date, there have been very few reported cases of isoniazid induced diabetes. We are presenting a case report of 6-year-old child with isoniazid induced diabetes who was misdiagnosed initially as a case of type 1 diabetes mellitus. We hereby stress that before diagnosing a patient with diabetes-type 1 or 2, a detailed history of drug intake for any such drugs, which can cause hyperglycemia has to be taken. Clear cut knowledge/cognizance of all such culprit drugs is therefore required.

متن کاملThe Effects of Isoniazid on the Acquisition and Expression of Morphine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference in Mice
Background: GABAergic drugs can modulate the rewarding properties of morphine. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of isoniazid, as a GABAergic agent, on the rewarding effects of morphine. Methods: Eighteen groups of female mice (eight per group) were used in a conditioned place preference (CPP) study. On the conditioning phase of the CPP p...
متن کاملEarly-onset severe isoniazid-induced motor-dominant neuropathy: a case report.
Nervous system toxicity with current antituberculosis pharmacotherapy is relatively uncommon, although the frequency of the usage of antituberculosis therapy requires that physicians should be aware of such toxicity. Peripheral neuropathy is a rare adverse effect associated with isoniazid, and it occurs after the prolonged use of this drug [1]. This usually presents with paresthesias which can ...
متن کاملEffects of Isoniazid on Tolerance and Sensitization to the Rewarding Properties of Morphine: A Conditioned Place Preference Procedure in Female Mice
Introduction: The GABAergic system of the brain plays a key role in morphine tolerance and sensitization. As isoniazid is a modulator of the GABAergic system, the present study aims to understand whether isoniazid can influence the induction of tolerance and sensitization to the rewarding effects of morphine. Methods: The rewarding effects of morphine and isoniazid were assessed using a Condi...
