[|Human|] Helllo Im working in China. I was coughing for almost 4 weeks so I went to the hospital and after 3 days of blood test, Xray and skin test, I got confirmed that I have ACTIVE TB. However since the first day of testing I got and injection and also I was prescribed CEFIXIME 50mg, 2 capsules every 12 hours. Now that infection is confirmed the doctor told me to keep this medication for the next 12 days. I checked in internet and I don t see evidence that this medication is the common to treat TB, should I wait, ask to change the medication or second opinion?
[|AI|]  HiT hanks for trusting Chat Doctor for your health problems. If your TB is confirmed then treatment includes Isoniazid, Rifampicin, Pyrazinamide, Ethambutol 3 times in a week for 2 months. Then Isoniazid, Rifampicin, Ethambutol 3 times a week for 4 months. Treatment should be completed without interruption. After 2 month and 6 months sputum and x-ray test should be done To confirm cure of Tuberculosis. Regards
