Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in children: Are the same therapy options available worldwide?
International Journal of Infectious Diseases : IJID 2023 March 22
The spread of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) encouraged the development of new medicines and the reappraisal of old drugs rarely used in recent years.

We showed that the development of child-friendly formulations of second-line drugs should be encouraged to promote adherence to recommended treatment regimens and consequently to increase the success rate and to prevent the development of additional mycobacterial resistances. This is even more crucial, considering the long duration of antitubercular therapies.
