Abstract

Studying the safety profile of antituberculosis drugs is a priority for the development of a treatment regimen as efficient as possible and with a high degree of tolerability for patients. The development of side adverse reactions of antituberculosis drugs continues to remain one of the main causes of low compliance or even abandonment of the administered treatment. The detection, reporting and analysis of adverse effects associated with the administration of antituberculosis drugs, both for first-line and second-line drugs, serves as a guarantee of successful treatment.
