    АТХ:

    J.04.A.M   Combinations of antituberculous drugs

    J.04.A.M.05   Isoniazid in combination with pyrazinamide and rifampicin

    Pharmacodynamics:

    Combined anti-tuberculosis drug.

    Isoniazid

    Inhibits the enzymes necessary for the synthesis of mycolic acids, which are the main structural fragments of the cell walls of mycobacterium tuberculosis.

    The most intensive synthesis of mycolic acids is carried out in growing cells, so isoniazid has a bactericidal action on them, and bacteriostatic action on mature cells.

    The high selectivity of the chemotherapeutic effect of isoniazid is due to the fact that there are no mycolic acids in the tissues of the macroorganism, as well as in other microorganisms.

    Pyrazinamide

    In the body it turns into pyrazinic acid, which is active only in acidic medium (foci of caseous decay). Prevents the synthesis of mycolic acid, the main substrate of mycobacterium tuberculosis membranes.

    Rifampicin

    Semisynthetic antibacterial agent of bactericidal action. Selectively inhibits the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase of mycobacterium tuberculosis and leprosy.

    Pharmacokinetics:

    Isoniazid

    After oral administration, the empty stomach is completely absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum concentration in blood plasma is achieved in 1-4 hours. The connection with plasma proteins is from 1 to 10%.

    Therapeutic effect develops after the reception. Metabolism in the liver by acetylation to inactive metabolites, penetrates the placental barrier, is excreted in breast milk.

    The rate of acetylation of the drug is genetically determined, so the half-life of isoniazid varies. Half-life for "fast acetylators" is 1 hour, for "slow acetylators" - 3 hours. Elimination by the kidneys.

    Pyrazinamide

    After oral administration, the empty stomach is completely absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum concentration of pyrazinic acid in the blood plasma is reached after 2 hours. The connection with plasma proteins is 10-20%.

    Metabolism in the liver.

    The half-life is 8-9 hours. Elimination by the kidneys.

    Rifampicin

    After oral administration, up to 98% is absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum concentration in the blood plasma is achieved in 2-3 hours. The connection with plasma proteins is 84-91%.

    Metabolism in the liver. Penetrates through blood-brain and placental barriers, excreted in breast milk.

    The half-life is 2.5-5 hours. Elimination with feces and kidneys.

    Indications:

    It is used for the treatment of tuberculosis and leprosy. It is used in the course of the bending of the tuberculin reaction, the increase in sensitivity to tuberculin.

    Interaction:

    Strengthens the action indirect hemocoagulants.

    Inhibits the metabolism of benzodiazepines, phenytoin and theophylline.

    Simultaneous use with paracetamol and other hepatotoxic substances increases the risk of toxic hepatonecrosis.

    Antatsidnye means slow down and reduce the absorption of isoniazid in the intestine, it is recommended to take them with an interval of 1 hour.

    With the simultaneous use of certain fish species (tuna, sardinella) and cheeses (Swiss), there may be a hyperemia of the skin, itching, headache due to the isoniazid suppression of monoamine oxidase and diaminoxidase activity in the blood plasma and a violation of the metabolism of histamine and tyramine.
