Abdominal tb
My sister was diagnosed for abdominal tuberculosis before a month and is on ATT. She takes R cinex 450+300 before food, then pyrazinamide 750 (2 tablets), ethambutol 800 and a vitamin b6 tab after food.
She takes R cinex in empty stomach, then after 1 hour, she takes a glass of milk. Then after an hour or so she has breakfast.
But for the last 3 days, after taking milk (after r cinex) she is vomiting but milk doesn't come out but something in orange colour. Then she's also having itches in leg and hands for last one week. Also she's feeling sleepy in daytime.
Please help me about vomiting and also tell if itches and sleepiness are normal during ATT. Thanks in advance.

I would advise you to get a liver function test to be done due to the vomitting and the itching to rule out a probable causes. It is normal to feel tired as the illness and the medication will make her feel tired and the body will heal while at rest, but she shouldn't sleep excessively and should walk around in between.
