pyrazinamide and Abscess, Tubercular, Intracranial

pyrazinamide has been researched along with Abscess, Tubercular, Intracranial in 14 studies

pyrazinecarboxamide : A monocarboxylic acid amide resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of pyrazinoic acid (pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid) with ammonia. A prodrug for pyrazinoic acid, pyrazinecarboxamide is used as part of multidrug regimens for the treatment of tuberculosis.
