An early diagnosis and treatment of active tuberculosis disease and LTBI, is important to prevent the spreading of the bacteria and protection of the individual health. First-line antituberculous drugs rifampin, isoniazid, ethambutol and pyrazinamide are highly effective against tuberculosis, given for 6 months period.
