I'm really worried about my sister. She was diagnosed with abdominal tuberculosis and has been on ATT for over a month now. Initially, she was prescribed AKT 2 450300. But just last week, the doctor switched her to R Cinex 450300 capsules. Ever since the change, she's been vomiting in the mornings after taking it, and she's been experiencing itchiness in her legs and hands, along with leg pain. Do you think we should go back to AKT 2?

I've been dealing with this nasty dry cough that started when I had viral fever about two weeks ago. The fever and cold symptoms have cleared up, but the cough has stuck around and now it's less frequent but still there. The mucus has got this dark greenish-blackish tinge, which is worrying me a bit. It's been three weeks now, and I'm not sure what to do to get rid of it. Any advice on how to tackle this?
