Tuberculosis
I am a t.b patient (abdominal) .I am taking medicine for 8 month for the same. But I took r cinex 600 for whole time period and comebutol 800 for 5 month.cause whenever I start taking comebutol I suffer from abdominal pain bloating etc .my doctor switched me to zenflox for first and then oflomac instead of comebutol for other three months with r cinex. When I take only r cinex it's fine but whenever I start taking 2nd drug (comebutol or zenflox or oflomac) the pain, bloating abdominal discomfort comes back.
I tried to consult with gastroenterologist (prescribed Mucain gel ,rebium dsr benadon) but it doesn't changes any thing.
what to do?

Gastritis is the common side effect of antitubercular tablets. If your blood tests like liver function test and renal function test are normal then your symptoms need not a worry. Continue what was prescribed by your gastroentrologist and don't stop Tuberculosis drugs which will lead to more complicated TB
