Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You have to stick on to your TB regime strictly because drug defaults can cause development of multi drug resistant tuberculosis which can be life threatening.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
