She was started tb treatment on rcinex 600 combutol 1000 pyniza (750 mg�2). Today she has completed 2 months with above medicines. Now the doctor suggested to take akt4 for next 4 months. They have heard that after completing 2 months, one tablet (pyrazinamide) has to be stopped. Please suggest what to do and which medicines to be taken as 2 months have been completed.
