Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this TB diagnosis. I am however happy that your father is receiving the right treatment. There is no AKT3. Whoever told you this information is wrong and misleading. Your father is being correctly treated and there is no reason to get concerned. Make sure he takes the drugs as recommended and am confident all would be okay.
