What are the Side Effects of Isoniazid in Children?
While isoniazid is generally well-tolerated, it can cause side effects, particularly with long-term use. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. More serious side effects may encompass liver toxicity, peripheral neuropathy, and allergic reactions. Pediatric patients should be monitored for symptoms of hepatotoxicity, such as jaundice, dark urine, and fatigue.
