165. ADAP Drugs: Ethambutol
Used in combination with other drugs for prevention and treatment of MAC and drug resistant tuberculosis (TB).(Myambutol)
http://www.atdn.org/access/drugs/etha.html
ethambutol (Myambutol) Drug description
Ethambutol is used in combination with other drugs for prevention and treatment of MAC and drug resistant tuberculosis (TB). MAC is caused by a type of mycobacteria. This type of organism causes TB as well as MAC. MAC and TB usually cause severe weight loss. It also may cause fevers, night sweats and chills. Maintenance therapy after an episode of MAC is now routine, although it is not known which of the existing available treatments is the most effective. The decision about what drug to take must partly be based on how sick you are and whether treatment has a chance of improving your quality of life. Those who have clinical symptoms but a relatively well-functioning liver and kidneys will respond best to treatment. Side effects
Acute gout, chills, pain and swelling of joints, skin rash, fever, numbness, tingling, burning pain, weakness of hands or feet, blurred vision, eye pain, red-green color blindness, some loss of vision, abdominal pain, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, headache and mental confusion. Dosage
Ethambutol comes in 100 mg and 400 mg tablets. Adults take 15-25 mg/kg of body weight once daily. The total daily dose should not exceed 900-2500 mg. Ethambutol may be taken with food to reduce stomach irritation. The tablet can be crushed if that makes it easier to take.

167. ADAP Drugs: Streptomycin
An antibiotic used in combination with other drugs to treat tuberculosis (TB). (Streptomycin sulfate)
http://www.atdn.org/access/drugs/stre.html
streptomycin (Streptomycin sulfate) Drug description
Side effects
Severe nausea, vomiting, dizziness, rash and fever. Loss of hearing has been reported following long term use. Streptomycin should not be used in anyone with kidney impairment because it increases the risk of severe toxic reactions. Dosage
Streptomycin is given by intramuscular injection. Adults are given 1 g daily in combination with 5 g of PAS and 200-300 mg of isoniazid. Ultimately the streptomycin should be stopped or reduced to 1 g two to three times weekly. How long it may take to work
The total period of treatment for TB is a minimum of 1 year. Indication for stopping streptomycin may occur at any time earlier due to toxic symptoms, or if the infection becomes resistant to the drug. Managing side effects
Symptoms subside and recovery is usually complete after you stop taking the drug. Roaring noises, or ringing in the ears are signs that treatment with streptomycin should be stopped. This information is specific to the use of this medication for HIV-related conditions. For additional information about this drug for other conditions, refer to: www.nursespdr.com/

169. ADAP Drugs: Ethionamide
A treatment for MAC and tuberculosis (TB). (Trecator SC)
http://www.atdn.org/access/drugs/ethi.html
ethionamide (Trecator SC) Drug description
Ethionamide is a treatment for MAC and tuberculosis (TB) used in combination with as many as 5 other drugs. A number of different drugs are being tried for prevention and maintenance treatment of MAC. MAC is related to TB, but no one TB drug works against MAC. Maintenance treatment after an episode of MAC is now routine, though it is not known which of the existing treatments is most effective. Multidrug therapy reduces mycobacterial colony counts in blood and leads to clinical improvement, especially the reduction of fever. Side effects
The most common side effects are nausea and vomiting. Other side effects can be depression, rash, low number of blood platelets, jaundice and/or hepatitis, inflammation of the mouth, mental depression, clumsiness or unsteadiness, confusion, mood or mental changes, changes in menstrual periods, coldness, decreased sexual ability, dry puffy skin, weight gain, high blood sugar levels, blurred vision, loss of vision, and skin rash. Dosage
Ethionamide should be given with at least one other effective anti-TB drug. Adults take 0.5 to 1.0 gram/day in divided doses. Treatment with pyridoxine at the same time is recommended.

    April 30, 2004 More SARS: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
    Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a viral respiratory illness caused by a coronavirus, called SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS CoV). SARS was first seen in Asia in November 2002 in Guangdong Province, China. In February 2003, an infected person inadvertently exported SARS from Guangdong. Over the next few months, the illness spread to more than two dozen countries worldwide, including Canada, the United States, Singapore, Vietnam and many others. The SARS global outbreak of 2003 was contained; however, it is possible that the disease could re-emerge. The BCCDC will continue to post updated information relating to SARS on this site as needed. For recent global updates on SARS and information and press releases about BC’s experience with SARS in early 2003, please click below.
