What Is Advanced Tuberculosis?

Advanced tuberculosis (TB) refers to severe or drug-resistant forms of TB that may not respond to conventional treatments. It includes multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB), extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB), and cases with complications involving organs beyond the lungs. Successful treatment requires prolonged, monitored therapy using specialized medication regimens, imaging studies, and lab testing to prevent relapse and transmission.

Comprehensive Approach to Advanced Tuberculosis Treatment

Advanced tuberculosis (TB) treatment requires a specialized, multi-layered approach to effectively combat drug-resistant strains and improve patient outcomes. This involves precise diagnosis through drug sensitivity testing, a tailored medication regimen including second-line drugs, and close monitoring under Directly Observed Therapy (DOT). Alongside medical treatment, patients benefit from nutritional support, long-term follow-up, and mental health counseling to manage the physical and emotional challenges of extended therapy. Our integrated care model ensures complete recovery with reduced risk of relapse or complications.
