Please don't worry. Fever takes time to disappeare.if persists for more than 15 days of medicine then visit a nearby doctor to rule out drug related fever .

After taking Att, the symptoms usually increase,because the bacilli are killed,and toxins are released in blood,and symptoms will increase. It may take up to a month.Afterwards the symptoms will decrease. It all depends upon the bacilli load also.pl consult Pulmonologist online with all the reports and treatment taken.
