Paradoxical worsening of pulmonary Mycobacterium abscessus [PDF]
Respiratory Medicine, 2007 Transient worsening of tuberculosis (TB) symptomatology and lesions in response to anti-TB therapy has previously been reported as paradoxical worsening. Recently, paradoxical worsening of TB following antiretroviral therapy in AIDS patients was reported. However, paradoxical worsening of nontuberculous mycobacterium, including Mycobacterium abscessus (

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Aminoglycosides are broad‐spectrum antibiotics used in the management of severe infections. Aminoglycosides are associated with nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity. Although dosing strategies such as once‐daily administration and therapeutic drug monitoring have reduced the incidence of nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity remains unpredictable and may occur at ...

Advancing Therapies for Mycobacterial Diseases: From Small Molecules to Host‐Directed Strategies
Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The global burden of multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) and the rising incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections highlight the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Current treatments are prolonged, toxic, and increasingly compromised by resistance and limited diagnostic capacity.
