Exposure to Rifampicin Is Strongly Reduced in Patients with Tuberculosis and Type 2 Diabetes

Abstract: Exposure (AUC(0-6 h)) to rifampicin was 53% lower in Indonesian patients with TB and DM, compared with patients with TB only. Patients with TB and DM who have a higher body weight may need a higher dose of rifampicin.

“…The studies done earlier had shown a high percentage of sputum positivity and a higher rate of pulmonary TB than extra pulmonary tuberculosis in diabetic patients. 1,6,9,10 It is because glucose stimulates the mycobacterial growth 5 and uncontrolled DM is responsible for poor clinical response to anti-TB therapy 6 which also increases the susceptibility to mycobacterial growth.…”
