Question

Give the classification of Anti-tubercular drugs with suitable examples​

Answer 1

In the new classification, and for the purpose of treating MDR-TB, pyrazinamide and ethambutol have been included in group D1 (7) (Figure 1). Fluoroquinolones (particularly the later-generation ones: high-dose levofloxacin or moxifloxacin) are core drugs, having bactericidal and sterilising activity.
