What is Isoniazid: Key Antimycobacterial Drug about?

Mycobacteria are acid-fast bacteria with highly lipophilic cell walls. They can cause infections like tuberculosis and leprosy. Anti-mycobacterial drugs target mycolic acid synthesis and include isoniazid, rifampin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide. Multidrug regimens are used to delay resistance and enhance efficacy. Resistance emerges from mutations affecting drug targets or activation.
