About Akurit Tablet
Akurit Tablet belongs to the group of medicines called anti-tuberculosis drugs primarily used to treat tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that mainly affects the lungs, but it can also spread to other body parts such as the kidneys, brain, spine, and bone marrow.
Akurit Tablet contains Rifampicin, and Isoniazid. Rifampicin inhibits DNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity in the bacteria. Isoniazid inhibits the biosynthesis of mycolic acid, which is the major component of the cell wall. Together, Akurit Tablet kills Mycobacterium tuberculosis which causes TB (tuberculosis).
In some cases, Akurit Tablet may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, stomach pain, and loss of appetite. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to the doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
Let your doctor know if your child is allergic to any of the components in Akurit Tablet. Keep your doctor informed about your child's health condition and medications to rule out any side effects/interactions.
