简要总结
The current treatment for drug-susceptible TB (DS-TB) involves a combination of four antibiotics: isoniazid (INH), rifampicin (RIF), pyrazinamide (PZA), and ethambutol (EMB), which target Mycobacterium tuberculosis via different mechanisms. Despite effectiveness, adverse effects like liver dysfunction and drug resistance are concerns. Limited new drug approvals since 2013 highlight the need for more efficient anti-TB drugs.Additionally, the emergence of drug-resistant strains poses a substantial risk to successful treatment outcomes. Given these challenges, there is a critical need for novel adjunct therapeutic strategies to address drug resistance, minimize toxicity, and enhance patient outcomes.
