I have been diagnosed with Extra Pulmonary TB with Precarditis. I have been provided with TB medicine RIFAMPICIN, ISONIAZIDA, ETAMBUTOL & LIVOFLOXACIN. I am currently in CHILE on an assignment and getting these Medicines from the govt as a part of DOTS where the medicine are given for 5 days a week. I want to know if the treatment is correct.. The treatment has been started from 2 weeks and I am feeling a difference and gaining health slowly..
