What is Isoniazid?
Active Ingredients: Isoniazid
Isoniazid Tablets are a drug used for the treatment of active and latent tuberculosis disease (TB). It is a first-line therapy used in combination with other antimycobacterial medicines. Isoniazid is used to prevent the spread of tuberculosis and to prevent infection in patients with a positive TB skin test.
Isoniazid is an antibiotic used primarily for its antituberculosis properties. It is thought to work by interfering with cell metabolism and inhibiting cell wall synthesis.
