Cycloserine is indicated in the treatment of active pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis (including renal disease) when the causative organisms are susceptible to this drug and when treatment with the primary medications (streptomycin, isoniazid, rifampin, and ethambutol) has proved inadequate. Like all antituberculosis drugs, cycloserine should be administered in conjunction with other effective chemotherapy and not as the sole therapeutic agent. Cycloserine may be effective in the treatment of acute urinary tract infections caused by susceptible strains of gram-positive and gram- negative bacteria. …
Administration is contraindicated in patients with any of the following: • Hypersensitivity to cycloserine • Epilepsy • Depression, severe anxiety, or psychosis • Severe renal insufficiency • Excessive concurrent use of alcoho
Administration of cycloserine should be discontinued or the dosage reduced if the patient develops allergic dermatitis or symptoms of CNS toxicity, such as convulsions, psychosis, somnolence, depression, confusion, hyperreflexia, headache, tremor, vertigo paresis, or dysarthria. The toxicity of cycloserine is closely related to excessive blood levels (above 30 mcg/mL), as determined by high dosage or inadequate renal clearance. The ratio of toxic dose to effective dose in tuberculosis is small. The risk of convulsions is increased in chronic alcoholics. Patients should be monitored by hematologic, renal excretion, blood level, and liver function studies.
Most adverse reactions occurring during therapy with cycloserine involve the nervous system or are manifestations of drug hypersensitivity. The following side effects have been observed in patients receiving cycloserine: Nervous system symptoms (which appear to be related to higher dosages of the drug, i.e., more than 500 mg daily) • Convulsions • Drowsiness and somnolence • Headache • Tremor • Dysarthria • Vertigo • Confusion and disorientation with loss of memory • Psychoses, possibly with suicidal tendencies • Character changes • Hyperirritability • Aggression • Paresis • Hyperreflexia • Paresthesia • Major & minor (localized) clonic seizures • Coma Cardiovascular: Sudden development of c …

Toxic effects may include headache, vertigo, confusion, drowsiness, hyperirritability, paresthesias, dysarthria, psychosis paresis, convulsions, and coma. …
