Cycloserine

Cycloserine is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including tuberculosis and other diseases caused by bacteria. It is active against many types of bacteria, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is the causative agent of tuberculosis.

Cycloserine is taken orally and can cause serious side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, seizures, and mental problems. These side effects can be very severe and may require you to stop taking the drug.

However, cycloserine has several benefits that make it useful for treating tuberculosis. It targets mycobacteria that are resistant to other antibiotics and may help reduce the risk of developing antibiotic resistance. Additionally, cycloserine can be used as maintenance therapy for people with tuberculosis to help them fight the infection and improve their condition.

It is important to note that cycloserine should not be used without consulting a doctor and only after performing the necessary tests. Self-medication can be dangerous and lead to serious consequences.

Cycloserine is a broad-spectrum anti-tuberculosis drug that has a bactericidal effect. The drug has high specificity against mycobacterium tuberculosis, including M. bovis, M avium, M. kansasii, M. marinum and others. The antibacterial effect of cycloserine is to inhibit the synthesis of mycolic acid, which is involved in the synthesis of the mycobacterial cell wall. Also active against some gram-negative microorganisms and some other strains of Bacteroides. Resistant to the action of many antibiotics, in particular to the action of β-lactam antibacterial agents. Generally low toxic
