A member asked:

Can vomiting during ptb treatment makes the lungs week?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tuberculosis: Your lungs will primarily be damaged by the tubercle bacillus if you have pulmonary infection. If you are vomiting and aspirate acid vomitus this can produce chemical pneumonia. Otherwise this should not be an issue.
