Mycurit 4 Mg Tablet Health Feed

Asked for female, 28 years old from Delhi

I am going through the Potts spine treatment. The doctor prescribed level one medicines for the treatment. However after a month and complete blood tests the liver test showed high SGOT AND SGPT. So the doctors have stopped Rifampicin. Pyrazinamide. Both of these medicines and says will resume it once the liver levels get normal! I am worried as I am bed ridden for almost a month now.

doctor has taken a right decision. Isoniazid should also be stopped till liver function return to norm

Asked for male, 21 years old from Nagpur

Hey I've been taking the following medicines for 4 months and still counting. 1) Isoniazid 2) pyrazinamide 3) moxifloxacin 4) Ethambutol 5) 60 streptomycin injections (10 pending) and lastly I wanna tell I also took omnacortil steroid 10 mg for 3 months along with these medicines and it's over now. I have swelling on my body because of it. I just wanted to know how long will it take to go away. can I gain weight at this point when I have swelling. If this swelling goes away I'd be thin as I was. I want to gain some weight before the swelling goes away totally. It's been 15 days I stopped taking omnacortil. please suggest me some ways to gain weight with this condition. I have to take akt for more 5 months.

Rifampicin resistance not detected means Rifampicin INH pyrazinamide Ethambutol are to be taken in the requisite doses. There's no need of streptomycin injection.
Wish you good health.
Meticulous treatment adherence till cure is recommended to prevent relapse or complications.

Pls help me I hav tb infection and I am pregnant nw some Dr. r saying abort and one is saying keep so what to do.

Dr. Brahma Prakash

Normal tuberculosis (i. E not drug resistant) can be treated along with presence of pregnancy. Not to worry if one has been given rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol and pyrazinamide for treatment of tb along with pregnancy. So no need for abortion but regular consultation with gynaecologist for monitoring fetal well being growth and development is needed.

Asked for female, 30 years old from Trichy

My son is 3 and a half years old diagnosed with spinal tb. He had recurring fever and localized lower back pain. There was pain in his legs behind the knees and stiffness. He had difficulty walking. His gait was antalgic. His mri showed l5 s1 affected with epidural abscess. Mis bilateral decompression was done. They started him on att 3fdc (pyrazinamide 450 mg, rifampicin 225 mg, isoniazid 150 mg based on his weight 15.6 kg) and wysolone 25 mg (steroid prescribed for 1 month and gradually tapered and stopped at the end of 2 and a half months). After 3 months there was a recurrence in tb which spread to l4 and l3. To make the spine stable we have done instrumentation. Is this recurrence due to wysolone?

Asked for male, 28 years old from Thane

9 months back, my mother was having 2 swelling seen in neck. We gone to doctor. Ent specialist. After several test like sonography, fnac it was detected as neck tb. There were total 5 in right neck with largest measuring 22 mm the doctor said to go with government medicines for tb. After 6 months course ,again sonography was done. All 5 were there size reduced with largest measuring 11 mm. Then again we were told to continue medicines for 3 months. In end of 8th month, my mother was not able to see properly. Blur vision. So we went to eye specialist, there 2 tests were done. One was for cornea and other for optic nerve damage .doctor said reports are normal and said it is due to tb medicine ethambutol. So he gave in writing to stop ethambutol. So we gone to government hospital to take medicines for for 9th month and told about blur vision. They gave 2 medicines. 1 was rifampicin and other was isoniazid. After taking for 1 month we did sonography again but now it showed lymph nodes swelling in left side also 3 to 4. And in right side largest measuring 10 mm. We told them government hospital. They told course is over. Now automatically it will go. Also vision will be clear. But it pains sometimes in neck. So they gave 1 month medicine rifampicin and isoniazid 1-1 tablet each day. They said treatment course is over but still swelling are there as in sonography. I am worried. Vision has improved slightly but not fully. Also do not know whom to ask ent or pulmonologist? please help.

If 9 months of treatment is over, att should be stopped. In cervical tb lymphadenitis, the nodes in the neck may shrink/ enlarge or new nodes can appear on the other side, all happens during the course of treatment. This doesn't mean that att didn't work or tb wasn't cured. The nodes will eventually disappear, or tiny nodes may remain in the neck permanently.
