About this study

Official title: The Application of the N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) Genotyping in Re-challenge Protocol of Isoniazid (INH) Titration in Patients With Anti-TB Medications-induced Hepatitis

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. successful re-use of isoniazid for TB treatment

    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.

    Measured: 6 months
