NAT2 Genotyping in Re-challenge Protocol of INH Titration in Patients With Anti-TB Medications-induced Hepatitis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
To improve the treatment outcome in patients with tuberculosis and integrate the pharmacogenetics into clinical practice, the information of NAT2 genotyping was used in re-challenge protocol for isoniazid (INH) titration in patients with anti-tuberculosis medication-induced hepatitis.

Experimental: isoniazid rechalleng When patients encountered hepatotoxicity during the anti-TB treatment, genotyping and pk study of INH would be performed and dose adjustment accordingly. |
Drug: isoniazid

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- successful re-use of isoniazid for TB treatment [6 months]
In this study, we would like to test the hypothesis of NAT2 genotyping helping in isoniazid rechallenge after patients experienced adverse effects of anti-TB treatment. Therefore, to observe the patients can re-use isoniazid successfully is an important outcome measure in this study.
