Abstract

 It is mandatory for TB patients to take Anti TB drugs in correct and complete form. Many a time long duration of treatment leads to non-adherence to treatment. Poor adherence to treatment leads to emergence of multidrug-resistant bacilli, so ensuring compliance is of utmost importance to control TB and halt the MDR TB epidemic at its beginning. The focus must remain on dealing with important reasons of default and timely retrievals of patients who interrupt treatment.
