Tuberculosis liquid specials
Posted in News
The RMOCs have recommended that prescribing for TB liquid specials should be limited to the licensed product for rifampicin and the following liquid specials:
- Isoniazid 50mg/5ml
- Ethambutol 400mg/5ml
- Pyrazinamide 500mg/5ml
Two new Tags have been created for RMOC Non-standardised anti-TB drugs for all oral liquid not on the RMOC preferred list and RMOC – Standardised anti-TB drugs for the formulation that meet the RMOC recommendations. Trusts can determine their use of standardised versus non-standardised liquid specials using the report here.
