pyrazinamide has been researched along with Child Malnutrition in 1 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.
Child Malnutrition: Malnutrition occurring in children ages 2 to 12 years, which is due to insufficient intake of food, dietary nutrients, or a pathophysiologic condition which prevents the absorption and utilization of food. Growth and development are markedly affected.

" 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." | 3.91 | Alternative dosing guidelines to improve outcomes in childhood tuberculosis: a mathematical modelling study.
