Abstract

Aim: To study the Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) experienced by MDR TB patients put on DOTS plus regimen.Material and Methods: The longitudinal cohort study was conducted by following a cohort of 142 MDR TB patients registered for DOTS plus therapy in 2010 under Revised National Tuberculosis Control Programme (RNTCP).Two follow ups were taken in a cohort of 142 MDR TB patients, first at completion of 6 months of treatment and second after completion of 24 months of treatment.Subjects were interviewed to study side effects of DOTS plus regimen.Results: After 6 months of treatment, 48.59% (69) patients developed ADRs and between 6 months and 24 months of treatment 54.93% (78) patients developed ADRs out of total 142 at both the milestones.GI disturbances were 54.9% at 1st follow up and 46.54% at second follow up.Other side effects like headache, arthralgias, decreased hearing and skin reactions were also reported in varying frequencies.Average duration of ADRs was 60-90 days at both the follow ups.62.68% of all ADRs were managed by symptomatic treatment and dose reduction was done in 4.47% of the patients in 2 nd follow up.Conclusion: ADRs were experienced by more than half of the patients in the study and they increased as the duration of treatment increased.GI disturbances, Headache and Arthalgia were most common ADRs among patients.Most of them were managed by symptomatic treatment.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
