Pyrazinamide removed due to liver problm
I am diagnosed with TB. After one week of HRZE, enzyme levels moved up a lot so meds were stopped. After one by one testing of Rifampicin and isoniazid, I am currently on 3 tablets RHE for nine months. Question is whether these three drugs are sufficient or fourth one is necessary.
