Treatment Modalities

The treatment of all forms of tuberculosis-disease is a daily antibiotic intake. Rest, interruption of occupational activity may be decided according to the patient's clinical state and/or socioeconomic condition. The standard regimen is six months long. In cases resistance to drugs, higher order antibiotics, or even intravenous antibiotics will be required. Multi-drug resistant TB is harder to treat.
