Hi. Thanks for posting your query on Healthcaremagic. Some antituberculosis medications have hepatotoxic effect and in those cases we hold on these drugs and give modified drugs. You doctor has made right changes in your treatment and you should continue these drugs. The LFT will start coming to normal level soon in next 2-3 weeks time.
