About This Medicine
Product description & overview
MYAMBUTOL 200MG TABLET contains Ethambutol, an antitubercular agent. Each tablet provides 200mg of Ethambutol. It is primarily used for the treatment of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) infections, including tuberculosis (TB) and atypical mycobacterial infections. Ethambutol works by inhibiting the mycolic acid synthesis in the cell wall of the mycobacteria. This medication should be administered under professional medical supervision and as part of a comprehensive treatment regimen for TB. Common side effects include optic nerve damage, which may lead to changes in color perception, and peripheral neuropathy. Regular monitoring of visual acuity and color perception is essential during therapy. MYAMBUTOL should not be used by patients with pre-existing visual impairment, or those who are hypersensitive to Ethambutol or any of its components. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any severe adverse effects.
