I'm really worried about my mom's lymph nodes TB treatment. I went to two different private hospitals and got two kinds of prescriptions. One doctor told me to give her Akurit 4, two tablets a day, and the other suggested AKT 4. Her weight is 63 kg, and I've read that TB medicine doses depend on weight. When I looked into it, it seems like AKT 4 suits her weight better than Akurit 4, which seems too low. Now I'm confused about which one would be more effective. Should I consider going to a government hospital for DOTS treatment instead? Is DOTS better, or should we stick with private care? Any advice would be much appreciated.
