Does anyone know if Isoniazid affect the mood, making you feel irritable and down ?

How do you know if Isoniazid is affecting the nerves?
Hello Everyone, Hope you are having a good day... I started Isoniazid a few weeks ago, and just wondering if anyone has any knowledge or experienced some symptoms of nerve damage due to Isoniazid? I seem to have a little bit of weakness in my hands.. I'm not sure if I should be concerned about this

Any supplements supporting liver while taking Isoniazid?
hello, I have started Isoniazid for 6 months, but I'm 58 yo. Liver risk is apparently higher because of my age. Just wondering if anyone is aware of some supplements that can support the liver? Thanks in advance Rosegardens

Is this common? fatigue and joint pain / cold hands and feet
On my 3rd month of treatment for active TB, currently on Rifampin, isoniazid, and b6. Looking at 6 months of treatment, maybe 9. I feel fatigued all the time, even with good sleep, exercise, drinking lots of water, eating whole foods and probiotics— like this general feeling of unwell and tiredness.

Tb meds that don't effect eyes
I has optic neuritis due to isoniazid but all the tb meds interacted so I'm off them for number of weeks to recover. However remaining brain tb is causing inflammation and I just don't know what to do. It appears all the tb first line meds and moxifloxacin can cause optic neuritis except pyrazinamide

Rifampin and opioid meds for chronic back pain
I ..66 year old male..have been on rifampin about a two months for latent tb. I have been taking tramadol and hydrocodone for many years for chronic back problems.

good morning
I am currently being treated for latent TB with Rifampin and on prednisone 6mg. I was doing so so well before this new med and it seems rifampin decreases the effects of prednisone which I’ve noticed so much lately! Ugh! I feel as if I’m back to square 1 with the PMR. Is anyone aware of how much I

Liver problems
I feel quite sorry for myself. After a weekend of severe pain and vomiting, it turns out my liver isn't doing so well. I'm in hospital atm, and consultant initially thought I had cholecystitis, but that doesn't appear to be the case although the presentation certainly looked that way.Theyve stopped

Staph Infections Rifampin
Has anyone had to use rifampin while on Zytiga? Jim has been having recurrent skin staph infections. His PCP is considering rifampin, but UCSF says he'll have to double his Zytiga & prednisone dosage for a month and get two week metabolic panel bloodwork. Jim's not wanting to rock the boat since

Thyroid Hormone Transporters in a Human Placental Cell Model
There has long been the received wisdom that T3 does not cross the placenta. I am not aware this has been proved in any level of detail. This paper appears to make that look wrong. Indeed, it appears to identify specific pharmaceutical agents which directly and significantly affect T3 transport

Latent tb treatment
Hello all! I discovered I have latent TB a few years ago via routine screening for working in a health center. I decided not to treat because the chance of activation is so low. But with covid I decided I should do the treatment. I’m having a lot of anxiety about the meds for the 3 month 3 HP treatment

Rifampicin & Resveratrol Nasal Spray
Hello to All, There recently were some studies published detailing the possible neurological benefits in "Nasal Spray of Rifampicin & Resveratrol". https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/22/16/8453/htm I realise that many may state, it was just in mice, so not that relevant.

Gilbert's Syndrome (unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia) and NASH (scientific point of view)
First I have to warn everyone that is about scientific articles and not everyone likes this stuff. Moreover is not approved fact. Nothing conclusive but below some studies about unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia (like in Gilbert's Syndrome) and some possible protective role for liver. But keep in mind
