Isoniazid-Induced Acute Psychosis in a Patient with Pleural Tuberculosis.

We describe the case of a 21-year-old black woman, with no prior psychiatric history, who developed a psychotic episode four days after she was started on isoniazid. This case highlights psychosis arising as a possible adverse effect of isoniazid and the importance of remaining vigilant when antituberculous therapy is started. PMID: 30906613 [PubMed]
