Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Some cases of TB may be drug-resistant, that is, they do not respond to the conventional anti-TB drugs. In these cases, second line anti TB drugs are required. These medications may include
cycloserine,
ofloxacin,
streptomycin injections, etc.
Please follow the advice of your doctor and ensure that your wife takes the medicines on a regular basis.
Please get back if you require any additional information.
Best wishes,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD (Internal Medicine), DM (Neurology)
