主 题:Drug Resistant Tuberculosis ADR: Second line Anti-Tubercular Drugs
摘 要:Introduction: The adverse drug events (ADEs) to second-line anti-TB drugs are one of the major reasons for the patients default on treatment. A general awareness of various adverse drug events (ADE) and their management is essential for the effective management of tuberculosis. Identification of adverse drug reaction profile of patients can be useful for the early detection, management and prevention of adverse drug events. Material and methods: It was a prospective observational study conducted after approved Institutional Ethics Committee. A total of 104 drug resistant tuberculosis patients registered from 1st November 2012 to 31st October 2013 started with second line anti-tubercular drugs under PMDT-RNCP after taking written informed consent. Adverse drug reaction during treatment recorded and assessed by Hart wig and WHO scale. Results: 87% patients experienced adverse drug reactions. Total 346 ADR were reported. Most common were gastritis (65%) and arthralgia (60.6%), others were nausea (35.6%), vomiting (32.7%), hyperuricemia (30.8%), giddiness (27%), anorexia (17.3), generalized weakness (15.4), insomnia (10.6%), psychosis (8.6%), hearing impairment (6.7%), hypersensitivity reaction (5.8%), peripheral neuropathy (4.8%), visual disturbance (3.8%), nephrotoxicity (2.9%), forgetfulness (2.9%), gynaecomastia (1.9%), hypothyroidism (1%), seizure (1%), and thrombocytopenia (1%). Conclusion: Majority of patients experienced wide range adverse drug reactions. Most of patients faced the problem within 2 - 3 months of initiation of treatment and managed by symptomatic. Early identification, prompt management and standardized reporting adverse drug reactions at all the level of healthcare are needed.
