I'm a bit worried because my doctor just switched my TB medication from AKT 4 to RCinex 450300 and Mycobutol 1000 without doing any tests. I've only been on the meds since the beginning of March, and he mentioned that TB doesn't spread after 15 days of treatment, so it's okay to resume normal activities. Could you please let me know if this change is safe and if it's really true that TB isnt contagious after just 15 days on meds?
Yes ,TB will not spread at present since 15 days treatment is completed .Continue all the medications.

I've been dealing with this uncontrollable cough and this thick, frothy sputum for almost four weeks now and it's not getting better. It's really hard to breathe with the coughing being non-stop. I'm starting to get worried. What could be causing this, and what should I do?
This could be a sign of a respiratory infection or condition such as pneumonia or bronchitis. I recommend you take an over-the-counter cough suppressant like Delsym (dextromethorphan) as directed on the package. Additionally, you can use an expectorant like Mucinex (guaifenesin) to help loosen the mucus. It is important to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly.
