Pyrazinamide disrupts the synthesis of mycolic acid in the tuberculosis bacteria’s cell wall, leading to cell death. This mechanism of action is crucial in the multidrug treatment regimen for tuberculosis.
Clinical trials have indicated that Pirazinamid, in combination with other anti-tuberculosis drugs, improves treatment outcomes and reduces the risk of drug-resistant strains, emphasizing the importance of treatment adherence for optimal results.
