So then we consult with chest and respiratory specialist doctor further we done the more test for this (Pleural Fluid) like AFB Culture, Cytology,and also we have done CT scan for chest and Sputum test all are regarding pulmonary tb. But all the report are showing normal. Also 15 days back we have done the bronchoscopy also for that one report came normal and we are now waiting for next report which will come after one month.

Can someone tell me what is the treatment schedule for tuberculosis in india as per who, please don't give me diplomatic answer, like talk to nearest tb hospital or pulmonologist and all. As I had it all .no body is clear regarding this treatment every doctor telling same thing. If one have been diagnosed with tb (test results- sputum for afb negative, hb-10, esr -99, rest all cbc normal, tb gold test - positive) physical symptoms cough lasts for 20 days, fever for 5 days no weight loss, no continues fever, doctor asked to start tb treatment it's been 4 months on treatment, but my question is should we continue with all the drugs as we are on (rifampicin 450, isoniazid 300, pyrazinamide 750, and ethambutol 600,) for six month or there is any change in treatment schedule. please clarify.

It should be non infective by now but may continue to be positive in montoux as antibodies have been formed already.

I just got into maintenance phase in tb treatment because I finished my 2 months medication before im taking 3 tablets of quadmax now my doctor 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?
