pyrazinamide and Body Weight

pyrazinamide has been researched along with Body Weight in 25 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.

Body Weight: The mass or quantity of heaviness of an individual. It is expressed by units of pounds or kilograms.

( Gupta, P; Khanna, A; Roy, V; Sahni, P; Sethi, GR, 2012)
" We estimated tuberculosis treatment outcomes in children younger than 5 years following WHO guidelines (children are dosed by weight bands corresponding to the number of fixed-dose combination tablets [75 mg rifampicin, 50 mg isoniazid, 150 mg pyrazinamide]) and two alternative dosing strategies: one based on a proposed algorithm that uses age, weight, and available formulations, in which underweight children would receive the same drug doses as would normal weight children of the same age; and another based on an individualised algorithm without dose limitations, in which derived doses results in target exposure attainment for the typical child."3.91Alternative dosing guidelines to improve outcomes in childhood tuberculosis: a mathematical modelling study.

"An analysis carried out on the dosage schemes adopted in several controlled clinical trials in tuberculosis has indicated that preestablishing the daily doses of isoniazid, rifampicin, and pyrazinamide in the initial intensive phase results in large deviations of the doses administered from those considered appropriate in mg/kg body weight."3.67Short-course chemotherapy of pulmonary tuberculosis: a new approach to drug dosage in the initial intensive phase.

"Poor bioavailability of rifampicin (R) in combination with other anti-tuberculosis drugs such as isoniazid (H), pyrazinamide (Z), and ethambutol (E) is a subject of much concern for the last few decades."1.32Bioavailability of rifampicin following concomitant administration of ethambutol or isoniazid or pyrazinamide or a combination of the three drugs.
