If you had put ,
  • procainamide
  • INH
  • Hydralazine

together ,then I would have said

All of these are
  1. Notorius for causing drug induced lupus
  2. metabolized by "acetylation"

Best of luck

alll are metabolized by N-actyl transfarase and all cause SLE in slow acetylators. in order of procainamide>hydralazine>isoniazid

  #4

leopard,muzammil: you are right IF the question had procainamide.

pyrazinamide,hydralazine, isoniazid

- all are implicated in SLE
- all cause hepatotoxicity
FYI, all are hydrazine drug derivatves

Good luck to all
