Dear Lybrate user, your tb treatment will be decided by your doctor. It will depend on your initial response (first 2 month therapy) and improvement (sputum test and chest x-ray) wishing you good health.

Akt-4 is incorrect. You have to take individual drugs as per your weight for your weight, with normal lft, creat and drug sensitive tb the regimen would be r 10 mg/kg h 5 mg/kg e 20 mg/kg z 30 mg/kg kindly get your weight checked accurately and get a prescription from a chest physician.
