Undergoing TB treatment for last 6 month

2020-09-12 08:48:26
Hello, I have been undergoing TB treatment for last 6 months. From today doctor asked to take only Rcinex 600. But wasn't sure of how many tablets I should be consuming as the strip comes with 3 tablets. Should I be taking only one or all 3 from the strip ?

Hello, 6 months is the usual treatment regimen, however if your doctor has asked you to continue it further, kindly refer to him about exact dosage. Usually all 3 tablets are to be taken together
