Product Description:

Aminosalicylic acid, also known as para-aminosalicylic acid (PAS), is a synthetic antibiotic primarily used in the treatment of tuberculosis, especially drug-resistant forms. It is marketed under brand names such as Paser and is typically administered orally as tablets or granules. Aminosalicylic acid works by inhibiting the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, interfering with bacterial folate metabolism and protein synthesis, making it effective in combination with other antituberculosis medications.

Beyond its use in tuberculosis, aminosalicylic acid has been utilized as a second-line therapy for inflammatory bowel diseases, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, in patients who are intolerant or unresponsive to sulfasalazine. Its pharmacological activity allows it to modulate bacterial growth in the gut while exerting anti-inflammatory effects in the intestinal mucosa.

Aminosalicylic acid remains an important therapeutic option for managing multidrug-resistant tuberculosis and certain gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders. Its inclusion in combination regimens helps improve treatment outcomes and reduce the risk of further drug resistance, ensuring effective management of these challenging clinical conditions.
