Is there a high probability of multidrug resistance in untreated tuberculosis?

The first treatment of tuberculosis multi-drug resistance possibility is also there, mainly because contact with the source of infection is multi-drug resistant patients, infected strains are multi-drug resistance, so the first treatment of tuberculosis is also multi-drug resistance possibility. Therefore, for each of the first treatment of tuberculosis patients, it is recommended to use the current more advanced gene testing, early detection of drug resistance. Found that patients suffering from tuberculosis, must take medicine according to the doctor's advice, regular review. Rules of medication, the risk of bacterial resistance greatly reduced. Drug resistance in bacteria often occurs during irregular medication. Therefore, patients should not stop taking tuberculosis drugs because they feel uncomfortable after taking them, or feel that their symptoms are much better, and stop taking the drugs before the course of treatment. In such cases, It is easy to develop drug-resistant tuberculosis. once you develop drug-resistant tuberculosis, the treatment cycle and cost, and adverse reactions from taking medicine are much greater than those of newly treated tuberculosis. Therefore, patients suffering from tuberculosis for the first time should be alert to this problem in their minds. They should take the medicine on time and according to the course of treatment under the guidance of doctors, and then they can stop taking the medicine. They cannot stop taking the medicine halfway by themselves.
