MEDICATION CHART (CONT…)
CLINICAL JUSTIFICATION
 Mannitol was given for edema in the temporal region.
 Corticosteroids help to reduce inflammation of the surface of
the brain and associated blood vessels, and are thought to
decrease pressure inside the brain and thus reduces the risk of
death.
 Pyridoxine should be given with Isoniazid.
 Isoniazid interferes competitively with pyridoxine metabolism by
inhibiting the formation of the active form of the vitamin, and
hence often results in peripheral neuropathy.
DISCHARGE SUMMARY-
 Tab.Rifampicin + Isoniazid (450+300mg) OD for 4 months
 Tab. Ethambutol (800mg) OD for 2 months
 Tab. Pyrazinamide (750mg) BD for 2 months
 Tab. Ca.carbonate + vit.D3 OD
PATIENT COUNSELLING
 Adherance to the drugs. Non-adherance to tuberculosis
treatment can lead to prolonged periods of infectiousness,
relapse, emergence of drug-resistance and increased
mortality and morbidity.
