HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, anti TB drugs can not be taken on permanent basis, there is definite course for this, and this course eradicate the infection for sure if taken on regular basis with the correct regimes, I advise you to consult the near DOT center, (WHO) they will advise you and treat you in much better way, hope this information helps you, no need to worry, you will be fine soon, take care and have nice life.
