Taking a combination of several drugs for 6 months can treat TB disease. It is very important that people who have TB disease complete the treatment course, and take the drugs exactly as prescribed to avoid recurrence of the disease or development of resistance to the drugs. TB that is resistant to drugs is harder and more expensive to treat. It is important that the health worker meets with regularly the patient in the course of treatment to monitor their progress.
