Description
Product Description:
3LW Sachet is a prescription anti-tuberculosis medicine manufactured by Maneesh Pharmaceuticals Ltd. It is used during the continuation phase of TB treatment and contains a fixed-dose combination of Rifampicin (300mg), Isoniazid (150mg), and Ethambutol (550mg). These three powerful anti-TB agents work together to eliminate Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria from the body, helping to prevent the progression and spread of tuberculosis.
This sachet format reduces the pill burden for patients and helps ensure proper dosing and better adherence to the treatment plan. 3LW Sachet is usually taken once daily on an empty stomach, exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional. It is important to complete the full course of therapy to avoid relapse or resistance.
Regular monitoring of liver and kidney function is advised during the treatment period. The medicine may cause side effects such as nausea, vision changes, or liver-related issues, so medical supervision is essential throughout the treatment.
