There is no reason for you to continue Pyrazinamide so long. And why is there no isoniazid in the prescribed drugs. The regimen you using for to cure tb is not correct.

Depends on the number of factors. Its not always seen in ATT CAT 2. Rifampicin, pyrizenamide, and isoniazid are hepatoxic drugs. Get LFT done after taking ATT if you have symptoms of jaundice. Treatment can be modified if jaundice persists. Thanks.
