Abstract:Rifampin is one of first-line drugs for the treatment of tuberculosis. In Indonesia nearly all tuberculosis patients show lower rifampin plasma concentration's possibly due to genetics. Rifampin is a substrate of the organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP 1B1) encoded by the solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B1 (SLCO1B1). This study aimed to identify haplotype polymorphisms of tuberculosis drug transporters with an impact on clinical outcome in tuberculosis patients. Thirty-six … Show more
