摘要：
Treating patients aged greater than or equal to 35 years for tuberculosis infection has been controversial because of the hepatotoxic effects of isoniazid. A 2-year retrospective cohort study of outpatient medical records determined the completion rate in this age group and identified risk factors associated with isoniazid-associated hepatotoxicity. Isoniazid preventative therapy was well tolerated. However, toxicity occurred in women receiving concomitant medications and men who used alcohol.
