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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Pyrazinamide was found to be capable of significantly inducing amino-levulinic acid synthetase activity; the other antituberculous drugs caused either slight or no induction of amino-levulinic acid synthetase."1.26Exacerbation of porphyria during treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. ( Magnussen, CR; Patterson, JR; Treece, GL; Tschudy, DP, 1976)
