Composition

Rare but serious — seek help immediately

• • Hepatotoxicity (Liver Damage): Can cause a mild, transient increase in liver enzymes. However, it carries a prominent risk of severe and potentially fatal hepatitis. This risk escalates with age and alcohol consumption. • Peripheral Neuropathy: Numbness, tingling, burning, or muscle weakness in the hands and feet. This occurs because isoniazid impairs vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) metabolism. Co-administration of a pyridoxine supplement is widely recommended to avoid this. • Central Nervous System (CNS) Effects: Dizziness, memory issues, psychosis, hyperreflexia, and in severe cases or overdoses, epileptic seizures. • Gastrointestinal Distress: Nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, or loss of appetite. • Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions (SCARs): Rare but critical allergic responses including DRESS syndrome, Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN), or severe blistering rashes
