How RF 3 Forte Products work
Isoniazid + Pyrazinamide + Rifampicin is a combination of three medicines: Isoniazid + Pyrazinamide + Rifampicin1, Isoniazid + Pyrazinamide + Rifampicin2 and Isoniazid + Pyrazinamide + Rifampicin3 which treat tuberculosis. Isoniazid + Pyrazinamide + Rifampicin1 prevents the TB bacteria from forming their own protective covering while Isoniazid + Pyrazinamide + Rifampicin3 works by inactivating a bacterial enzyme (RNA-polymerase) which is required by these bacteria to make essential proteins and to reproduce. Together, they kill the bacteria and eradicate the infection. Isoniazid + Pyrazinamide + Rifampicin2, on the other hand works by slowing the growth of these bacteria.
