About ATD medicine
Having low grade fever and cough in FNAC is written- necrotizing granulomatous inflammation suggestive of Tuberculosis. ( No malignant cell found) Doctor gave Akt4 first but my fever was previously 99.5 to 100 but after taking Akt4 for 13 days it was increased up to 101.7 for last 5 days.Doctor says as my weight is 77kg i need to have AKURIT 4 -5 tablets daily. Is this right medication? Do i really need to take ATD DRUG with this report? In gene xprt it's written Rifampicin susceptibility COULD not be determined due to very low MTB DNA. is that mean I have MDR ? Please help me doctor .
