Indications :
Rifampicin, Ethambutol, Isoniazid,
Pyrazinamide and Streptomycin are used
in medication and management of
Tuberculosis.
Description:
Rifampicin inhibits DNA-dependent
RNA
polymerase in bacterial cells
by binding its beta subunit, thus
preventing transcription of
messenger RNA (mRNA) and
subsequent translation to proteins.
Ethambutol is a synthetic,
bacteriostatic antitubercular agent.
Ethambutol diffuses into actively
growing mycobacteria cells such as
tubercle bacilli . It appears to inhibit
the synthesis of one or more
metabolites, thus impairing cell
metabolism, arresting multiplication,
and resulting in cell death.
INH is thought to work through its effects
on lipids (fats) and DNA within the
tuberculosis bacterium.
Dosage:
Adults: (below 50 kg) : 450 mg daily as
