User Comments about INH
24 Sep 2010 I'm wondering if inh made me vulnerable to developing a yeast infection and if there are any drug interactions to worry about treating it?

31 Aug 2010 i was never advised of the side effects that have taken place since i started taking this drug.. after the first round of all 4 drugs for TB i thought the worse was behind me but this has never ended and now with 8 more treatments i can say I WOULD HAVE FAUGHT not to be put on these drugs. they should be made to tell you everything that might possibly happen.. my hearing and sight are going down as the days go by... its not worth it

24 Jun 2009 I do not feel satisfied with INH which is a drug that prevent tuberculosis. Since I do not really need to take it. I call my doctor to make sure if I should stop taking INH or not. He checked me and the nurse withdraw two tubes of blood to get tested and see if this drug is affecting my liver. I will see the doctor this Thursday again to get my results but the doctor already told me to stop taking INH to compare how I feel by not taking it.
