Streptomycin

Noah Chung M.D.

This medication is used with other medications to treat active tuberculosis (TB) infection if you cannot take other drugs for TB or if you have a type of TB that cannot be treated with other drugs (drug-resistant TB). Streptomycin belongs to a class of drugs known as aminoglycoside antibiotics. It works by killing the organisms that cause the infection.    This drug may also be used to treat other serious infections (such as Mycobacterium avium complex-MAC, tularemia, endocarditis, plague) along with other medications.

Streptomycin is prescribed alongside other medications for the treatment of active tuberculosis (TB), particularly when other TB drugs are ineffective or when dealing with drug-resistant TB strains. As part of the aminoglycoside antibiotics class, Streptomycin eradicates the bacteria responsible for the infection. Additionally, it may be used to treat other severe infections, such as Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), tularemia, endocarditis, and plague, in combination with other medications.
