(812) Tablets may be also formulated, if needed, as tablets with common coatings including, for example, sugar-coated tablets, gelatin-encapsulated tablets, enteric coated tablets, film-coated tablets, double-coated tablets, and multi-layered tablets.

(813) Any publicly known carriers may be widely used for a carrier used in formulating pills, and include, for example, excipients such as glucose, lactose, starch, cacao butter, hydrogenated vegetable oil, kaolin, and talc; binders such as gum arabic powders, tragacanth powders, gelatin, and ethanol; and disintegrants such as laminaran and agar.

(814) Any publicly known carriers may be widely used for a carrier used in formulating suppositories, and include, for example, polyethylene glycol, cacao butter, higher alcohol, esters of higher alcohol, gelatin, and semisynthetic glyceride.

(815) When injections are formulated, liquids, emulsions, and suspensions are preferably sterilized and isotonic with blood. Any publicly known diluents may be widely used for a diluent used in formulating these liquids, emulsions, and suspensions, and include, for example, water, ethanol, propylene glycol, ethoxylated isostearyl alcohol, polyoxylated isostearyl alcohol, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters.

(816) The amount of Compound [I] in the present invention contained in a medical formulation is not limited and may be optionally adjusted within a broad range of amounts; it is preferable that a medical formulation typically comprises 1 to 70% by weight of Compound [I] in the present invention.

(817) A method of administering a medical formulation in the present invention is not limited and the medical formulation may be administered with a method depending on various dosage forms, ages, genders, and disease states of patients, and other conditions. For example, tablets, pills, liquids, suspensions, emulsions, granules, and capsules may be orally administered.

Suppositories may be rectally administered.

(818) A dosage amount of the medical formulation may be optionally adjusted depending on dosage regimens, ages, genders, and the extent of diseases of patients, and other conditions; the medical formulation may be typically administered in 0.01 to 100 mg/kg, preferably 0.1 to 50 mg/kg, of body weight per day in a single dose or multiple doses.

(820) Compound [I] in the present invention may be specifically effective against, particularly, Mycobacteria such as Mycobacterium (M.) tuberculosis, including M. tuberculosis complex and non-tuberculosis mycobacteria, and may also have potent activity against multidrug-resistant tuberculosis bacteria. Compound [I] may show antibacterial activity not only in vitro but also in vivo in oral administration because it successfully distributes in lung tissues which are primarily infected organs. Compound [I] in the present invention may, therefore, be useful for a medicinal agent for diagnosing, preventing, and/or treating tuberculosis. The term tuberculosis herein includes primary tuberculosis, secondary tuberculosis, pulmonary tuberculosis, and extrapulmonary tuberculosis (such as meningitis, peritonitis, renal tuberculosis, adrenal tuberculosis, bone tuberculosis, joint tuberculosis, intestinal tuberculosis, cutaneous tuberculosis, laryngeal tuberculosis, and lymph node tuberculosis).

(821) Compound [I] in the present invention does not substantially induce diarrhea as seen in known antibacterial agents with a broad spectrum against common bacteria such as gram-positive bacteria and gram-negative bacteria, and may become a medicinal substance that allows for a long-term administration.

(822) Compound [I] in the present invention is effective for intracellular parasitic bacteria such as human-origin tuberculosis bacteria which is parasitic in macrophage and has stronger bactericidal activity in a lower concentration than existing antitubercular agents in a bactericidal test. It is, therefore, expected that the relapse rate in tuberculosis is reduced, which eventually allows for a short-term chemotherapy.

(823) Compound [I] in the present invention shows lower toxicity than existing drugs, and application to long-term use in the treatment for latent tuberculosis is also expected.
