How about the side effects of the tb cat i drugs? are they remote? i'm just worried about liver damage and stuff. thanks

Depends: Each drug has a different profile. Inh or isoniazide can occasionally cause liver problems, but these aren't severe and won't cause damage if you are followed closely and the drugs are stopped if any sign of liver irritation develops.
