Ethambutol is a vital component of tuberculosis treatment regimens, offering both bactericidal and sterilizing activities while being effective in drug-resistant cases and as an adjuvant therapy. Its specific mechanism of action targets the mycobacterial cell wall, making it a crucial tool in the fight against tuberculosis.

 

1. Tuberculosis Treatment: Ethambutol is commonly prescribed in combination with other tuberculostatics, such as isoniazid, rifampin, and pyrazinamide, for the initial treatment of tuberculosis.
2. Drug-Resistant Cases: It is particularly useful in cases where other drugs have failed or are not tolerated due to resistance or adverse effects.
3. Prevention: In some situations, ethambutol may also be used as a preventive measure against tuberculosis in individuals at high risk of exposure.

1. Bacterial Inhibition: Ethambutol inhibits the synthesis of mycobacterial arachidonic acid, an essential component of the mycobacterial cell wall. This leads to the disruption of cell wall integrity and ultimately bacterial death.
2. Sterilizing Activity: It exhibits sterilizing activity, meaning it can kill persistent, slowly multiplying, or non-replicating bacteria, which are often difficult to eliminate with other drugs.
3. Adjuvant Therapy: By enhancing the activity of other tuberculostatics, ethambutol helps to shorten the duration of treatment and reduce the likelihood of treatment failure or relapse.
