Experiments on rats showed that 14-day exposure of the animals to pyrazinamide in a dose of 1.5 g/kg induced marked disorders in cholopoiesis and lowering of the reduced glutathion levels in the liver. When pyrazinamide was used in combination with isoniazid or rifampicin a marked increase in the activity of aspartate and alanine aminotransferases in blood serum and induction of lipid peroxidation in the liver were observed in addition to the disorders in cholopoiesis and lowering of the reduced glutathion levels. Combined use of pyraxinamide, isoniazid and rifampicin induced disorders in the liver state not differing significantly from those observed with using pyrazinamide in combination with isoniazid or rifampicin.

D012293 Rifampin A semisynthetic antibiotic produced from Streptomyces mediterranei. It has a broad antibacterial spectrum, including activity against several forms of Mycobacterium. In susceptible organisms it inhibits DNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity by forming a stable complex with the enzyme. It thus suppresses the initiation of RNA synthesis. Rifampin is bactericidal, and acts on both intracellular and extracellular organisms.
