    The preformulation investigation of a combination anti-tuberculosis dosage form
    (1998-06-04) Ebrahim, Salma
    Tuberculosis control in South Africa continues to be a major challenge with 90 000 new cases reported in 1995. Major contributory factors towards these epidemic proportions are patient non-compliance and the occurrence of drug resistant tuberculosis. Fixed drug combinations of anti-tuberculosis drugs have been reported to reduce the possibility of resistance arising to any one of the drugs in combination and to improve compliance. However, the combination anti-tuberculosis drugs available at present still suffer the disadvantage of patients having to take 6 tablets per day. Therefore, the purpose of this project was to investigate a formulation that would reduce this disadvantage.
