The specific treatment for TB is 4drug combination for 6 to 9months, (uninterupted).As your dr stopped medicines due to side effects , I regret for that. What kind of side effects she got.please remember all allopathic medicines have their own side effects, more with TB medicines.3 or 4 drug regime should be for at least 6months (uninterrupted course).If the side effects are life endangering, then you are justified. Side effects like nausea, vomitings , acidity Gas can be managed with medicines.Patients will pass dark colour or red urine during treatment, nothing alarming. Patient should go for
liver function tests periodically.Patient will get drug resistance if you stop medicines in the middle of the course, instead we can change the brand of medicine.
Next Steps
get
liver function tests and report back .
Health Tips
plenty of water intake, fruits & juices avoiding masala may reduce the common side effects to some extent.
