Lymph node tb
Treatment started 1 week back - HRZE (6 tabs), Now presenting with nausea since 3 days with 2-3 episodes of vomiting. Got tests done- AST -109 , ALT- 45 , bilirubin normal, s. Uric acid - 12.78 .
Our Doctor suggested that pyrazinamide be removed and add levoflox 750 od.
Other doctor suggested to stop rifampicin and pyrazinamide both and repeat lft after 5 days
The doctor in DTC ( district tuberculosis centre) suggested to continue the medication- HRZE and only to be discontinued if Liver enzymes raised by 5 times.
Currently there are no symptoms but I'm confused as to what to do? Please guide
