The most frequent adverse effects of aminosalicylic acid or its salt are GI disturbances including nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and anorexia. Rarely, aminosalicylic acid has caused peptic ulcer and gastric hemorrhage. Adverse GI effects may be minimized in some patients by administering the aminosalicylates with meals; however, symptoms may be severe enough to require discontinuation of the drugs. Malabsorption of vitamin B12 folic acid, iron, and lipids has also occurred occasionally in patients receiving aminosalicylic acid or its salt, possibly as the result of increased peristalsis. The manufacturer states that maintenance therapy with vitamin B12 should be considered in patients receiving aminosalicylic acid for longer than 1 month.

For the treatment of tuberculosis
Granupas is indicated for use as part of an appropriate combination regimen for multi-drug resistant tuberculosis in adults and paediatric patients from 28 days of age and older when an effective treatment regimen cannot otherwise be composed for reasons of resistance or tolerability (see section 4. 4).
Consideration should be given to official guidance on the appropriate use of antibacterial agents.
Antitubercular Agents
Drugs used in the treatment of tuberculosis. They are divided into two main classes: "first-line" agents, those with the greatest efficacy and acceptable degrees of toxicity used successfully in the great majority of cases; and "second-line" drugs used in drug-resistant cases or those in which some other patient-related condition has compromised the effectiveness of primary therapy. (See all compounds classified as Antitubercular Agents.)

Aminosalicyclic acid is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. A single oral dose of 4 g of the free acid produces maximal concentrations in plasma of about 75 ug/ml within 1.5 to 2 hours. The sodium salt is absorbed even more rapidly. The drug appears to be distributed throughout the total body water and reaches high concentrations in pleural fluid and caseous tissue. However, values in CSF are low, perhaps because of active outward transport.

Blood from tuberculosis patients was cultured before, during, and after withdrawal of therapy involving five different drug combinations if isoniazid, thiacetazone, p-aminosalicyclic acid, and streptomycin. The approaches used to detect DNA damage were chromosome aberrations and sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs). A total of 179 subjects were analyzed. In combo these drugs showed synergistic, additive, and antagonistic effects, though they were found to be nonclastogenic individually. Four of the drug combinations, isoniazid plus thiacetazone, isoniazid plus p-aminosalicyclic acid, isoniazid plus thiacetazone plus streptomycin, and isoniazid plus p-aminosalicyclic acid plus streptomycin, induced a significant incr in the frequency of aberrations, whereas isoniazid plus streptomycin did not induce aberrations. In fact, streptomycin appeared to reduce the frequency of aberrations. SCEs were incr in only two patients: one treated with isoniazid plus thiacetazone and the other with isoniazid plus p-aminosalicyclic acid. The frequency of aberrations after withdrawal of therapy was decr; it was slightly higher than the controls, though it was insignificant. The return to normalcy could be due to elimination of damaged cells or the repair of DNA in lymphocytes. Though the drug-induced aberrations do not persist after withdrawal of therapy, the chromosome damaging combo of drugs should be used with caution, because the possibility of meiotic chromosome damage in germ cells (during therapy), which might be passed on to the next generation, cannot be ruled out.

There are two mechanisms responsible for aminosalicylic acid's bacteriostatic action against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Firstly, aminosalicylic acid inhibits folic acid synthesis (without potentiation with antifolic compounds). The binding of para-aminobenzoic acid to pteridine synthetase acts as the first step in folic acid synthesis. Aminosalicylic acid binds pteridine synthetase with greater affinity than para-aminobenzoic acid, effectively inhibiting the synthesis of folic acid. As bacteria are unable to use external sources of folic acid, cell growth and multiplication slows. Secondly, aminosalicylic acid may inhibit the synthesis of the cell wall component, mycobactin, thus reducing iron uptake by M. tuberculosis.
The antimicrobial activity of aminosalicylic acid is highly specific, and microorganisms other than Mycobacterium tuberculosis are unaffected. Most nontuberculous mycobacteria are not inhibited by the drug.
Hardman, J.G., L.E. Limbird, P.B. Molinoff, R.W. Ruddon, A.G. Goodman (eds.). Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics. 9th ed. New York, NY: McGraw-Hill, 1996., p. 1164
Aminosalicyclic acid is a structural analog of paraaminobenzoic acid, and its mechanism of action appears to be very similar to that of the sulfonamides. Since the sulfonamides are ineffective against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and aminosalicyclic is inactive against sulfonamide susceptible bacteria, it is probable that the enzymes responsible for folate biosynthesis in various microorganisms may be quite exacting in their capacity to distinguish various analogs from the true metabolite.
