Is there tuberculosis treatment for 4 months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
INH + rifapentine: The gold standard for latent (noninfectious) TB was nine months of Isoniazid (inh), but a study recently published in the new england journal of medicine showed that only three months of Rifapentine and inh was just as efficacious as the aforementioned standard.
