#Isoniazid
Isoniazid, ein Antibiotikum gegen Tuberkulose fällt bis April aus. Erst mal. Da hilft auch keine KI.

The banana flavor relx pod tastes like the liquid form of isoniazid 😭😭😭

2/ Standard TB treatment takes at least 6 months of multiple antibiotics. The first-line drugs are:
•Isoniazid (INH)
•Rifampin (RIF)
•Pyrazinamide (PZA)
•Ethambutol (EMB)

Miss doses or stop early? The bacteria can mutate and become drug-resistant.

Hepatotoxicity Among People Living with HIV and Receiving Isoniazid Preventive Therapy in Pregnancy and Postpartum: The Role of Antiretroviral Regimen and Pharmacogenetics
TB APPRISE (IMPAACT P1078), a Phase IV randomized, multi-country non-inferiority trial assessing the safety of 28 weeks of isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) initiated during pregnancy (immediate IPT) versus deferring to week 12 postpartum (deferred IPT) in people living with HIV on antiretroviral therapy, showed higher than expected hepatotoxicity. We investigated the potential roles of antiretrovirals, isoniazid, pharmacogenetics and other factors.

There is already a massive access issue for certain Tuberculosis medications (currently isoniazid, previously moxifloxacin) in the US that is being exacerbated by imported ingredient pricing.

This is almost certainly going to make that worse.
I dunno but it should probably be a bigger deal that the White House announced it wants to slap a 100% tariff on drug imports at the same time it is eliminating Medicare drug subsidies. And we’re talking about critical life-saving drugs like insulin, blood thinners, antibiotics, and heart meds.

We see patterns of seasonal infections that are within the normal range. We see immunity, good antibody and T cell responses, etc.

In an attempt to stay relevant, the cult keeps cherry-picking data, such as a local outbreak of TB. This happens as reported before

Ethionamide has been used to treat tuberculosis for decades, but dose-dependent toxic effects have limited its use. In a new trial, alpibectir enabled the ethionamide dose to be reduced by two thirds. Full trial results: nej.md/46PP9Rn

TB is treated with antibiotics. The length of treatment depends on the type of TB.

Active TB-Usually treated with a combination of 3 or more antibiotics for 6–9 months or longer

Latent or Inactive TB-Usually treated with a 6–12 month course of isoniazid
