Frequently asked questions about Pyrazinamide
Mzide is an antibiotic. It is used in combination with other antibiotics in the treatment of tuberculosis
Mzide is both a bacteriostatic and a bactericidal antibiotic. It stops the growth of bacteria (bacteriostatic) in certain cases and kills (bactericidal) the tuberculosis causing bacteria in other cases
Mzide kills or stops growth of bacteria that causes tuberculosis (Mycobacterium tuberculosis). The exact mechanism of action for Mzide is not known
Following oral intake of Mzide, it gets converted in the body to pyrazinoic acid (active chemical form of Mzide). Pyrazinoic acid blocks the excretion of urates (salt form of uric acid) by the kidneys. This causes an increase in blood levels of uric acid (hyperuricemia). Excess uric acid accumulation between joints causes pain, swelling, redness and stiffness in joints (gout).
