About SOLONEX DT 100MG TABLET

SOLONEX DT 100MG TABLET belongs to a group of medicines called anti-tubercular agents, which are primarily used to treat and prevent tuberculosis (TB). Tuberculosis is an infectious bacterial disease that mainly affects the lungs, but it can also spread to other parts of the body, including the kidneys, brain, spine, and bone marrow. SOLONEX DT 100MG TABLET does not work against infections caused by the virus.

SOLONEX DT 100MG TABLET contains isoniazid, an antibiotic that prevents bacteria from producing mycolic acids, an enzyme required for cell wall formation (protective coating). As a result of the disturbance in their metabolism, bacteria that lack a cell wall die and burst. Thus, SOLONEX DT 100MG TABLET inhibits the spread of infection by acting against the bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which causes tuberculosis.

Take SOLONEX DT 100MG TABLET for as long as your doctor has prescribed it based on your medical condition.
