My mom had some fluid taken out from her lungs and the lab tests said it's not TB. But she still has this fever in the evenings, sweats a lot at night, can't really catch her breath well, and her heart's racing. Could these be signs of pneumonia or maybe even TB?

View allI'm having trouble finding the anti-TB medicine I got from the government hospital at the local pharmacy. It has Rifampicin 150mg, Isoniazid 75mg, Pyrazinamide 400mg, and Ethambutol Hydrochloride 275mg. Can you recommend any alternative names for this medication? I'm a bit concerned and could use some guidance.
You can try asking your doctor or pharmacist for an alternative brand with the same composition of Rifampicin, Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, and Ethambutol. Some common alternatives include **Rifagut**, **Rifinah**, or **4-FDC**, but its important to get a recommendation based on your specific treatment needs.

So, this morning I noticed I had thick yellow sputum with some blood in it, but it only happened once and I haven't had any other symptoms. I'm kinda worried about what might be going on. Is this something serious, or could it just be a random thing? What should I be doing or watching out for?

I've been dealing with a cough for the past month and my fever keeps hovering between 102 and 104. I just got my test results back: my Mentaux test is positive and my chest X-ray shows some bronchetactics changes in the left upper-mid zone. There's also been mention of bronchial wall thickening and nodular densities in the upper zone. The report says it could be an infectious or inflammatory issue. I'm really worriedis this something serious that needs immediate attention, or is it likely to improve on its own? Any advice on how to handle this would be really appreciated.
