There are many different antituberculosis drugs available. A lot of them do cause anaemia as a side effect, although some of them do not.

Depending on how each drug works, the type of anaemia it causes varies.

Some antituberculosis drugs that cause anaemia as a side effect are:

* Cycloserine - megaloblastic anaemia * Isoniazid - haemolytic anaemia or aplastic anaemia * Pyrazinamide - sideroblastic anaemia * Rifampicin - haemolytic anaemia
