The treatment principle of tuberculosis is early, combined, appropriate, regular and whole course

What needs to be noted is that we should not omit or interrupt the medication by ourselves. We should take the medication according to the regular course of treatment. Now the treatment of tuberculosis is short-term intensive treatment under the supervision of doctors, and the course of treatment is generally 6-8 months Meningeal tuberculosis is not infectious.

Due to the communication between the lung and the outside world, when tuberculosis develops, worsens or forms cavities, a large number of TB bacteria in the lesions multiply and are discharged through the bronchus, causing the spread of TB bacteria. Such tuberculosis is contagious. But when the patient is cured, it is no longer a source of infection. The majority of tuberculosis can be cured, but it needs regular treatment (standard treatment of anti tuberculosis drugs for at least half a year, and the use of tuberculosis drugs has the "cross principle": early, combined, appropriate, regular and whole course).
