Myambutol is an antibiotic primarily used to treat tuberculosis. It targets actively multiplying cells of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The medication works by inhibiting bacterial RNA synthesis, disrupting cell metabolism, and ultimately stopping bacterial reproduction, leading to their death. Myambutol is effective against mycobacteria that have developed resistance to other antibiotics such as streptomycin, isoniazid, ethionamide, and kanamycin.
Always follow your doctor's instructions when taking Myambutol. Do not start or stop the medication without medical consultation. To reduce the risk of stomach discomfort, take it with a meal or milk. Patients with kidney failure may require dosage adjustments.
Myambutol should only be used in combination with other tuberculosis medications. Using it alone may lead to the rapid development of drug-resistant bacterial strains.
Myambutol is not suitable for individuals with hypersensitivity to the medication. It is also contraindicated in patients with optic neuritis, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, inflammatory eye diseases, gout, or chronic kidney failure. Additionally, it should not be used in children under 13 years of age, pregnant women, or breastfeeding mothers.
The most common side effects of Myambutol include stomach upset, dizziness, fatigue, and headaches. These symptoms typically subside as the body adjusts to the medication. However, contact your doctor immediately if symptoms worsen or if you experience signs of an allergic reaction, such as rash, swelling, or numbness in the hands or feet. Vision changes, such as difficulty distinguishing colors, sudden color blindness, or blurred vision, require urgent medical attention. Persistent or severe nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark urine, or jaundice may indicate liver issues and should be reported to your doctor immediately.
Myambutol may enhance the effects of other anti-tuberculosis medications. It can also increase the neurotoxicity of certain drugs, including ciprofloxacin, carbamazepine, asparaginase, aminoglycosides, lithium salts, imipenem, methotrexate, and quinine.
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your regular schedule. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one.
Symptoms of Myambutol overdose are not well-documented. If you suspect an overdose, seek immediate medical attention.
Store Myambutol at room temperature in a tightly sealed container, away from moisture and humidity.
