Product information
About
Combutal 800 from Lupin contains ethambutol, an antibiotic used as part of combination treatment for tuberculosis. It is taken alongside other anti-TB medicines to prevent resistance.
Uses
- Treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis
- Treatment of extra-pulmonary TB
- Part of multidrug TB regimens
- Mycobacterium avium complex infections
How it works
Ethambutol stops Mycobacterium tuberculosis from building its cell wall by blocking an enzyme called arabinosyl transferase, slowing bacterial growth so the body can clear the infection.
How to take
Take as prescribed by your doctor, usually as a single daily dose. Swallow whole with water and complete the full course even if you feel better.
Side effects
- Blurred vision or change in colour vision
- Nausea or stomach upset
- Joint pain
- Skin rash
Precautions
Report any vision changes to your doctor immediately. Inform your doctor about kidney or eye problems and have regular eye check-ups during treatment.
Storage
Store below 25 degrees Celsius in a dry place, away from light. Keep in the original strip and out of reach of children.
