Firstly you should go for proper investigation to rule out MDR TB. At least CB NAAT should be done.

All the above four medicines can be safely taken during pregnancy, none of them cause any fetal malformations.
You will have to continue these medicines throughout pregnancy. You should be under continuos care of your gynaecologist and physician throughout pregnancy and follow their advice.

Health Query

I just got into maintenance phase in tb treatment because I finished my 2 months medication. Before im taking 3 tablets of quadmax, contents of quadmax is Rifampicin 150 mg, INH 75 mg, pyrazinamide 400 mg, ethambutol HCl 275 mg. Now my doctor said that she will transfer me to maintenance phase and she gave me 1 tablet of Rifampicin isoniazid 450 mg/400 mg a day. I forgot to ask my doctor if I need to continue drinking 3 tablets of quadmax. Do I need to take also 3 tablets of quadmax or the 1 tablet of rifampicin isoniazid only?

Medicine in quadmax is insufficient as per ypour weight. Need to take rifampicin/ isoniazid 450/300 and ethambutol 800 daily in continuation phase.

Asked for female, 25 years old from Thane

I am a 26 year old female on anti tb medicines which shall complete 2 months of the course, being isoniazid resistant the doctor prescribed me with rifampicin, levofloxacin, ethambutol and pyrazinamide. The medications were fine for the past month but from few days I am suffering from nausea again. I would like to know how long will these side effects last? Is the treatment working or no? Also after taking rifampicin in the morning I feel as if there is mucus generated coz when I cough I can feel it, what is the reason behind the same?

Need all tests again. Get lft to rule out drug induced hepatitis if tests favours then medicine can be reduced and will need minimum of 6 months.

Hi I'm 24 year old TB patient (lymph node tb) .I was taking akt4. My liver reacted to pyrazinamide so my doctor stopped it after taking it for 2 -3 days. So My doctor suggested 9 months isoniazid and rifampicin .Is it ok?

Dr. Vaibhav Krishna92%(56 ratings)

Pulmonologist•Allahabad

No. Kindly wait for few days. And start again. Isoniazid Nd rifampin regime is outdated. At present isoniazid Nd rifampin and ethambutol is considered. Nd infact pyrazinamide has less liver toxicity as compared to rifampin.
