Authorised
This medicine is authorised for use in the European Union.

Overview

Deltyba is a medicine that is used in adults, adolescents, children and infants weighing at least 10 kg who have tuberculosis affecting the lung and that is multi-drug resistant (resistant to at least isoniazid and rifampicin, the two standard tuberculosis medicines).

It is used together with other tuberculosis medicines and only when other standard medicine cannot be used either because the disease is resistant to them or because of their side effects.

Deltyba contains the active substance delamanid.

Tuberculosis is rare in the EU, and Deltyba was designated an ‘orphan medicine’ (a medicine used in rare diseases) on 1 February 2008. Further information on the orphan designation can be found here: ema.europa.eu/en/medicines/human/orphan-designations/eu307524
