Tb treatment is for 6 months in most cases. Can assess with xray chest, haemogram, sputum afb and past treatment history whether to continue medicine or not. Need rifampicin, ethambutol and isoniazid combination as maintenance therapy.

Hello.
Your Dr. has given you ipt (isoniazid preventive therapy and Dr. must have ruled out active tb before giving you ipt). Isoniazid prevents latent tb infection in to developing in to active tb (disease with signs and symptoms) as its 10 times more common to get active tb in hiv pos pt than in non hiv pos pt. Pl take pyridoxine with isoniazid. Good to see your cd4 count and vl result. Thanks.

1. Although not entirely clear from the details provided, it seems that you still have TB lymphadenitis. 2. The resolution of the disease will mainly depend on the drug sensitivity, the type, dose and duration of anti-TB drugs and how compliant you are with the medications. 3. If you still aren't cured, something went wrong in one or more if the above mentioned factors. Please get yourself reviewed as soon as possible.

Well, it's good that you have limited your alcohol consumption to the minimum. Alcohol and isoniazid do not react well when taken together. Alcohol may increase the risk of liver damage with isoniazid. Those who are on isoniazid are advised to abstain from alcohol as they may have unpleasant side effects. Once the drug is stopped you will not have these symptoms after alcohol consumption.

Alcohol never good for health to the best of my knowledge Alcohol can be metabolised by healthy liver
Healthy liver is declared after blood tests and ultrasound etc by a physician Alcohol may cause irritation to stomach even in small quantities in some individuals.
