I have PTB since september and I started taking my tb meds its been 1 month and 3 weeks. But I am bothered if the medicine is working because I do not take it in the same exact time but I take it when I woke up 2 hrs before breakfast. May I know if taking tb medicine in not the same exact time can work?

lybrate-user, All TB medications should be within span of 1 hour. Rifampicin and Isoniazid should be taken before breakfast and rest after breakfast.
