My daughter (in her early teens) took this medicine for 9 months after a supposedly positive PPD. The doctors insisted she take it even though her chest x-rays came negative, and I trusted them enough to follow their directions. DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICATION. My daughter experienced mood swings while taking it. Even though her emotional symptoms seem resolved since completing the 9 month treatment, ...

I have been taking Isoniazid for two weeks now. My joints are painful and I am worried about lupus, it is one of the side effects of this drug. My sister has lupus now that she got from one of her heart medications. I am going to press my Dr for a QuantiFERON-TB Gold blood test before I will continue with this treatment. My sister has undergone two hip replacements and is always off of work because of the lupus. I had the BCG vaccine as a child and am wondering if that is the cause of my positive skin test. My chest xray is clear.Read More Read Less

when i strated taking the medication i was fine. i was taking my diuretic in the evening and isoniazid at 11:25am. i noticed that just about 1 hour or so before my next dosage i would become dizzy and weak. about an hour or so after taking it i would be myself again. but i didn't felt comfortable i felt to tired and weak. i went to my doctor and took me off the medication. in 2 wks im supposed to go back and get another medicine and im praying to GOD that everything goes well the 2nd time around. i really dont know if this is ok but i guess the doctors didnt want to take a risk. the doctor even told me that it was not a common symptom but that i had to get off the medication. i hope all goes well.Read More Read Less
