with this description, for a Indian setup TB is most likely diagnosis. Treatment prescribed seems to be adequate. Most important things which I can add are- take medicines regularly, watch for any new symptom suggestive of liver function impairment eg nausea, vomiting, pain over abdomen, etc, tingling and numbness in limbs. If any of these symptoms arise contact your doctor imminently.
