Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

The Macox Zh Tablet combines three drugs that fight tuberculosis: isoniazid, pyrazinamide, and rifampicin. Isoniazid works by preventing the TB bacteria from forming their protective layers. Rifampicin works by inhibiting an enzyme (RNA-polymerase) necessary for bacteria to replicate and make essential proteins. Combined, these actions kill the bacteria and eliminate the infection. However, pyrazinamide slows down the growth of these bacteria.
