The review by Grosset et al. in a recent issue of the
Journal is highly interesting, and rightly pictures a
bright horizon for the improved treatment of tuberculosis. However, there are alternative compounds
that can already provide considerable relief in compassionate
application of treatment for multidrugr
esistant and extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis
(MDR/XDR-TB) in the short term, and may offer an
important additional effect in treatment regimens due
to a special working mechanism, such as effl ux pump
inhibition.
