Descriptions

Is an oral broad spectrum antibiotic effective against tuberculosis, it inhibits cell wall synthesis of TB bacilli at early stage of peptidoglycan synthesis. Being trialed for treatment of phobias as well as an adjuvant to conventional treatments for depression and schizophrenia. Side effects mainly CNS manifestations i.e. headache, irritability, depression, convulsions. Co-administration of pyridoxine can reduce the incidence of some of the CNS side effects(e.g. convulsions). These psychotropic responses are related to D-cycloserine's action as a partial agonist of the neuronal NMDA receptor for glutamate and have been examined in implications with sensory-related fear extinction in the amygdala.
