R-Cinex 600 Tablet
R-Cinex 600 Tablet 3’s belongs to the group of medicines called ‘anti-tuberculosis drugs primarily used to treat and prevent tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that mainly affects the lungs, but it can also spread to other body parts such as kidneys, brain, spine, and bone marrow. RCinex 600 Tablet 3’s does not work against infections caused by the virus, such as the common cold and flu.
R-Cinex 600 Tablet 3’s is a combination of four drugs: Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, Pyridoxine (vitamin B6), and Rifampicin. Isoniazid inhibits the biosynthesis of mycolic acid, which is the major component of the bacterial cell wall. Pyrazinamide is an antibiotic that works by stopping the growth of bacteria that cause tuberculosis. Pyridoxine treats nerve damage (neuritis) caused by tuberculosis. Rifampicin inhibits DNA dependent RNA polymerase activity in the bacteria.
