NAT2 Genotyping in Re-challenge Protocol of INH Titration in Patients With Anti-TB Medications-induced Hepatitis

March 13, 2014 updated by: National Taiwan University Hospital

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

To improve the treatment outcome in patients with tuberculosis and integrate the pharmacogenetics into clinical practice, the information of NAT2 genotyping was used in re-challenge protocol for isoniazid (INH) titration in patients with anti-tuberculosis medication-induced hepatitis.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
successful re-use of isoniazid for TB treatment
Time Frame: 6 months
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.
