hi
PTB( pulmonary tuberculosis has a standard set of anti-tubercular medications(rifampicin,isoniazid,pyrazinamide,ethambutol) which should be continued for exact durations to be free of the problem or permanent cure or avoid resistance to the drugs
now what you are taking are also the same drugs.
there are no other best medications other than this
improve your diet with good nutritious food,to improve the immunity.
please do not stop the medications until medically advised
that is once your sputum cultures & PCR levels come normal.
all the best
take care
