Most probably, this is a side effect of anti tuberculosis medication. The color should disappear within a few weeks to a month.
However, PL consult a dentist or Oral Medicine specialist with details of your medication history. It can be confirmed if it's a side effect or any other condition.
Tongue discoloration is not a symptom of tb.
