How Vicox EZ Tablet works
Akurit 4 Tablet is a unique combination of four essential medicines: Isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide, specifically designed to treat tuberculosis. Isoniazid, functioning as an antibiotic, halts the growth of bacteria by preventing them from forming their protective covering. Rifampicin, on the other hand, disables a crucial bacterial enzyme called RNA-polymerase, which is vital for tuberculosis bacteria to produce essential proteins and reproduce. Ethambutol and pyrazinamide contribute by impeding the growth rate of these bacteria, thus aiding in the treatment process.
