Rifampicin Health Feed

There is no such test. When you have completed the stipulated course it is expected that you are cured of your malady. Subsequently if the swelling reappears or there is pus coming out then you will need further evaluation otherwise not. Wish you good health.

In my opinion you are on wrong advise. Forecox is same as rehz and adding only streptomycin to failing treatment is not good. Get culture and sensitivity for afb and add four new anti tb drugs under supervision of respiratory physician.

AKT4 is not to be taken for 6 months. Also TB treatment is in most cases for 6 months only if a drug sensitive first infection

Irregularity in taking antitubercular medicines make the bacteria become resistant to standard multi-drug regime. The best option in the treatment for any chronic illness is to find the doctor in whom one can trust and then follow his advise. If there is any problem during the treatment period, feedback should be given to the same doctor.

Can use either. TB drugs are to be taken empty stomach, as per weight and all medicine together for good effect.

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 Isoniazid Nd rifampin regime is outdated.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.

1. No it is not correct treatment.
2. Post all the reports to me including fluid report, lft and x-ray chest.

Hello,
akt once started needs to be continued for 6 to 9 months.
You could do a liver function test blood test just so as to see if akt has caused any hepatic disfunction which is a known side effect of akt
and make sure she takes the tablets in 10 min interval.
U can try to take the tabelts 2 hour after food if she has been taking it empty stomach.
Hope this helps.

If ony one dose of solonex is missed thennothing to worry.But you have not mentioned proper quantity as there is no rifampicin having 800mg or ethambotol having 450 mg

Few patient can have drug side effect. Get LFT and serum uric acid test done and consult your doctor as TB medicine needs reduction of dose at 2 months.
