IMPURITIES AVAILABLE FOR 'Ethionamide'

Omsynth Lifesciences Pvt. Ltd. is one of the leading manufacturer and exporter of Ethionamide. Ethionamide is a second-line antitubercular drug used in the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). It acts as a prodrug that, once activated by bacterial enzymes, inhibits the synthesis of mycolic acids—essential components of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis cell wall. This disruption compromises cell wall integrity, leading to bacterial death. Ethionamide is structurally related to isoniazid and is administered orally, often in combination with other antitubercular agents to prevent resistance. Common side effects include gastrointestinal disturbances, hepatotoxicity, metallic taste, and neurological symptoms such as dizziness or depression. Supplementation with vitamin B₆ (pyridoxine) is often recommended to reduce neurotoxic effects. Despite its adverse effects, Ethionamide remains an important therapeutic option for resistant TB strains, contributing significantly to successful tuberculosis management.
