Hi,
No particular diet except high protein diet is required. Your dosage are right except the dose of Combutol. Considering your weight, it should be 1 Gram. Usually the duration of treatment is 6 months and we are to withdraw Pyrazinamide after 2 months. In some cases the duration of treatment may be a bit longer if advised by your doctor.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
