Adherence to tuberculosis(TB) treatment is important for promoting individual and public health. Poor adherence to TB treatment results in:

  • More individual suffering and death,
  • Costly treatment as treatment regimens lengthen and
  • Increases the risk for Drug Resistant Tuberculosis

 

Proper treatment of all forms of TB is critical to reducing individual morbidity and mortality and to interrupting transmission among family and community members.
