| 31. | Iproniazid was the result of a failed medicinal chemistry attempt to improve on the anti-tubercular activity of isoniazid.
|
| 32. | That risk can be greatly reduced if someone who is exposed takes daily doses of the antibiotic isoniazid for nine months.
|
| 33. | Therefore, isoniazid-induced pyridoxine deficiency causes insufficient heme formation in early red blood cells, leading to sideroblastic anemia.
|
| 34. | Other possible causes include medications, like prednisone or other corticosteroids; isoniazid, a tuberculosis drug; barbiturates, and lithium.
|
| 35. | The agency has recommended a nine-month regimen of another drug, isoniazid, as the preferred treatment for latent TB.
|
| 36. | In 1952, learning of the stimulating side effects of isoniazid, the Cincinnati psychiatrist Max Lurie tried it on his patients.
|
| 37. | Headache, poor concentration, weight gain, poor memory, insomnia, and depression have all been associated with isoniazid use.
|
| 38. | Drug-induced liver damage ( hepatotoxicity ) results not from paracetamol itself, but from one of its metabolites, isoniazid.
|
| 39. | Research has shown that isoniazid can be more than 85 percent effective in reducing an individual's risk of developing active tuberculosis.
|
| 40. | Indeed, this was previously the recommended standard regimen in many countries until the early 1990s, when isoniazid-resistance rates increased.
