Tuberculosis

Background

One of the challenges in TB treatment is patient compliance due to the long duration of treatment. Shorter duration regimens can reduce TB incidence and mortality by 27% and 25% by 2050. In 2022, WHO recommends a four-month 2HPMZ/2HPM scheme. Therefore, operational research was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness, acceptability, and safety of the HPMZ strategy.
