  • Description Isoniazid, the hydrazide of isonicotinic acid was introduced into medical practice for treating tuberculosis in 1953. Isoniazid exhibits bactericidal action on Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It inhibits the synthesis of mycolic acid, an important component of the cell membrane of mycobacteria. Mycolic acid is specific only to mycobacteria, and it is the cause of the selective toxicity of the drug with respect to these microorganisms. Mutants that are resistant to isoniazid are rarely seen in nature, and in a spontaneously growing population of tuberculous bacillus there is approximately one mutant in every 105 –106 organisms. Large populations of microorganisms of the order 109 –1010 bacilli in the pulmonary cavities contain a significant number of resistant mutants. If only isoniazid is taken during treatment, an increased number of mutants will be observed and they will eventually become the dominant phenotype. The transformation from sensitive to nonsensitive microorganisms during treatment is called secondary or acquired resistance, which can originate over the course of a few weeks. Isoniazid is the most important drug for treating pulmonary and nonpulmonary forms of tuberculosis. It is active against both intracellular and extracellular organisms. In order to prevent secondary resistance, isoniazid should be used with other effective drugs (usually rifampin). Synonyms of this drug are tubazid, andrazide, niazid, piridizin, and many others. Isoniazid is an antibiotic that acts as a prodrug, being converted by bacterial catalase-peroxidases to form isonicotinic acyl-NADH complex, which inhibits mycolic acid biosynthesis. It is effective against several species of Mycobacterium, including M. tuberculosis.
  • Uses Isoniazid is an antimicrobial used for the prevention of tuberculosis infection or used concurrently with another agent for the treatment of tuberculosis infection. Rifampin, pyrazinamide, or both of these agents are commonly used with isoniazid. Isoniazid is the only Food and Drug Administration approved drug to treat latent tuberculosis in order to prevent it from becoming active. antibacterial, tuberculostatic Antibiotic for treatment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, inhibits mycolic acid biosynthesis. Metabolized by hepatic N-acetyltransferase (NAT) and cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) to form hepatotoxins. Sele ctively induces expression of CYP2E1. Reversibly inhibits CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 activities, and mechanistically inactivates CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 at clinically relevant concentrations. Antib acterial (tuberculostatic). For the treatment of all forms of tuberculosis in which organisms are susceptible.
  • Indications Isoniazid (isonicotinic acid hydrazide, or INH) is the most active drug for the treatment of tuberculosis caused by susceptible strains. It is a synthetic agent with a structural similarity to that of pyridoxine.
  • Therapeutic Function Antitubercular
  • Biological Functions Its action is bactericidal against replicating organisms, but it appears to be only bacteriostatic at best against semidormant and dormant populations. After treatment with INH, M . tuberculosis loses its acid fastness, which may be interpreted as indicating that the drug interferes with cell wall development.
  • Clinical Use Isonicotinic acid hydrazide, isonicotinyl hydrazide, or INH(Nydrazid) occurs as a nearly colorless crystalline solid thatis very soluble in water. It is prepared by reacting the methylester of isonicotinic acid with hydrazine.Isoniazid is a remarkably effective agent and continuesto be one of the primary drugs (along with rifampin, pyrazinamide,and ethambutol) for the treatment of tuberculosis.It is not, however, uniformly effective against all formsof the disease. The frequent emergence of strains of the tuberclebacillus resistant to isoniazid during therapy wasseen as the major shortcoming of the drug. This problemhas been largely, but not entirely, overcome with the use ofcombinations.The activity of isoniazid is manifested on the growing tuberclebacilli and not on resting forms. Its action, which isconsidered bactericidal, is to cause the bacilli to lose lipidcontent by a mechanism that has not been fully elucidated.The most generally accepted theory suggests that the principaleffect of isoniazid is to inhibit the synthesis of mycolicacids, high–molecular-weight, branched β-hydroxyfatty acids that constitute important components of the cellwalls of mycobacteria. Isoniazid is among the safest and most active mycobactericidal agents. It is considered the primary drug for use in all therapeutic and prophylactic regimens for susceptible tuberculosis infections. It is also included in the first-line drug combinations for use in all types of tuberculous infections. Isoniazid is preferred as a single agent in the treatment of latent tuberculosis infections in high-risk persons having a positive tuberculin skin reaction with no radiological or other clinical evidence of tuberculosis. Mycobacterium kansasii is usually susceptible to isoniazid, and it is included in the standard multidrug treatment regimen. Tuberculosis (intensive and continuation phases) Prevention of primary tuberculosis in close contacts and reactivation disease in infected but healthy persons (monotherapy)
  • Drug interactions Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs Antibacterials: increased risk of hepatotoxicity with rifampicin. Antiepileptics: metabolism of carbamazepine, ethosuximide and phenytoin inhibited (enhanced effect); also with carbamazepine, isoniazid hepatotoxicity possibly increased.
