Took tb medicine in late

2016-10-22 06:45:43
Hi, i am in tb treatment from 3 months. I take the drugs in morning always in same time at 9.20 am before breakfast. But however today i took the drug 1 hour late at 10.30 am and then took the breakfast at 11.30 am. Please tell me is it fine or should i go to my doctor soon? Because i read in a article that we should take the tb drug in same time. Or is there a risk i made today for MDR tb?

Hi.. I understand your concern.. Good that you are aware of ill effects of non compliance with TB drugs.. But need not worry with the above mentioned incident.. You are delayed by an hour in taking tablets is not much to worry..keep taking tablets as advised by the doctor Dr. Yogesh Deogirikar
