welcome to hcm
short answer: anti tuberculous drugs will cause increased appetite and that is the reason behind weight gainn
dertailed answer: Rcinex is rifampicin
combutol is ethambutol
vizilac is B complex
benadon is b6

all these drugs are given in the treatment of tuberculosis and these drugs will increase the appetite and that is the reason behind your weight gain. it is more important in the treatment of tuberclosis too. after your weight gain only your body will have the capability in dealing with tuberculosis.
