Inhalation therapy is a promising drug delivery approach for tuberculosis treatment. However, there is always concern about the safety of the dosage form by inhalation as it may induce inflammation. Developing a new dosage form for inhalation must include tests for its safety especially for the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukine (IL)-1β. The safety of four anti-tuberculosis (anti-TB) drugs administered via inhalation was assessed in healthy volunteers. Four anti-TB drugs; isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide and levofloxacin were prepared as dry powder and evaluated for uniformity of delivered dose and in vitro drug deposition. These four anti-TB dry powder formulations for inhalation met the criteria of uniformity of delivered dose and exhibited suitable size for lung delivery. Forty healthy volunteers were recruited and each was sequentially challenged with isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide and levofloxacin in different orders. Safety was monitored by measuring the pro-inflammatory cytokines in their sputum, lung function test, blood chemistry and adverse events. This study proves that all four anti-TB dry powders did not provoke inflammatory cytokines and are safe to healthy volunteers.
