Thanks for the question
in our country tuberculosis is a common cause for pericardial effusion. As per the reports that you have provided your father's pericardiocentesis was done and fluid analysis was suggestive of tuberculosis (with high ada). The treatment he has been put on is fine. Presently, he is on rcinex and benadon, hence I presume that his initial intensive phase of anti-tubercular drugs is over. The management duration is usually 6-9 months in respondent cases.

She is definitely recovering. Reappearance of glands or fever does not means failure. Continue with the treatment.

Hello Doctor, I was diagnosed with Pulmonary TB about a month ago and began with the treatment in april end .The only symptom I had was rubbing around rib cage while taking deep breaths. Except for that, I did not have any cough, fever or even weight loss. During diagnosis , genexpert report showed that I was not resistant to rifampicin. After a month of treatment , on 27th may I experienced mild fever of about 99 deg C. But when it didn't go away I took paracetamol after the advice of my physician. The fever continued and I occasionally experienced sweats when I slept. When the fever didn't improve, my doctor checked me for malaria and found nothing in the tests. He also asked me for a new chest xray and saw a slight amount of improvement in the TB scar compared to earlier xray. An AFB test using pleural fluid came negative. He then advised me to take levoflox 750 for a week. Today, is the 6th day of levoflox and my condition of fever has slightly improved but the fever still comes back around in the late afternoon and then I take a paracetamol to avoid it's rise. Other than fever, I don't have any other symptoms. I have attached the latest reports respectively for my tests. Following are the medicines I was prescribed to and I have been taking them regularly. Tab. C.Rcinex 600 - empty stomach Tab. Pyzina 1gm and benadon 40 mg - After breakfast Tab. Cumbotol - after lunch Tab. Pyzina 750 mg - after dinner. Thank you very much,

Hi! My mother is 43 years old and her weight is 49kg. She went through a sputum check which is done for 3 days. In which 1st test came negative but the other two were positive. After consulting with the Doctor, She has started her medication from today. 2 tablets of Forecox after 15 minutes of taking 1 tablet of Pan-D. Also half tablet of Benadon on alternate days. But the problem is she is suffering from fever since last 10 days. If she takes the medicine in the morning her temperature goes normal but again in the evening temperature rises above 100. If she is taking paracetamol then it's results lasts for about 10-12 hours. Can medicine cause any kind of problem and is this also the symptom of TB?

Hello, Mr. Bose, You have to assess your current nutritional status and whether you are on balanced nutrition. If you are not in the state of balanced nutrition your medicines will not work properly.
