Ans:A. Isoniazid.
Pyridoxine should be given when treating with Isoniazid.
- Peripheral neuritis associated with isoniaide probably relates to interference with pyridoxine (vitamin B6).
- Thus when treating a patient with isoniazid it is essential to supplement with pyridoxine to reduce chances of peripheral neuritis.
