I've just started taking Akurit 4 tablets for mild TB, and I've noticed that my urine has turned orange since this morning. Is this something that usually happens, or should I be really concerned about it? I'm feeling a bit anxious and would love to get some clarity on this.

Is there a way to clean out the tar from your lungs if you've been smoking? And if there is, how much would that cost? I've heard of someone getting it done, and I'm really curious if it's actually possible.
Removing tar from smoker lungs is a challenging process, but it's possible to reduce the damage and promote lung health. Unfortunately, there's no magic procedure to completely remove tar, but quitting smoking is the first step towards healing. Your lungs have an incredible ability to repair themselves, and the healing process begins immediately after quitting smoking. Within 48 hours, carbon monoxide levels drop, and oxygen levels increase. The cilia in your lungs start to regrow within a week, and lung function improves within a month. To support your lung health, consider incorporating lung-cleansing foods, drinks, and supplements into your routine. These may include: - Lung-Cleansing Foods: Dark leafy greens, berries, citrus fruits, garlic, onions, ginger, and turmeric. - Lung Detox Drinks: Teas made from ginger, basil, and echinacea.
