Introduction: In India, the daily weight-based, Fixed Dose Combination (FDC) Antituberculosis Treatment (ATT) regime under National Tuberculosis Elimination Programme (NTEP) was introduced, replacing previous intermittent with aim of improving compliance, decreasing Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) and thus ultimately translating to improved treatment outcomes. The ADRs are an important factor that can adversely impact compliance outcomes ATT regime. There is currently a paucity studies...
