Your medical care plan will be designed especially for you and may differ somewhat from the care described in this booklet. Your doctor may also recommend that you take pyridoxine, a form of vitamin B6, each day to help reduce side effects from isoniazid. Be sure to tell your doctor about any side effects you mayhave from the medicine, such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, tiredness or weakness, skin rashes, or fever. Instructions for taking medication for TB infection can be confusing. Work closely with your health care provider to be sure you complete your treatment.
Untreated syphilis can cause severe nerve, heart, and blood vessel damage and even death.
You should tell your doctor about your full sexual and medical history. Your doctor may give you blood tests to learn if you have syphilis and to see how far it has progressed. You also may need other tests. If you have syphilis, you should tell your sex partners or persons who have injected drugs with you. Your health care provider or a health department worker can help you do this and tell you whether the law in your state requires that your sex partners be notified.
