Hi.
Thanks for your query.
There are certain things that have to be observed with the efficacy of the treatment.::
Whether the patient is finding herself feeling better, improved appetite, increase in weight, improved facial appearance, better sleep.
Now in case of abdominal tuberculosis the problem lies with the intestinal adhesions / obstruction. And in some cases the obstruction actually can increase due to fibrosis - which is a part of any healing process.
If your Wife is feeling extreme weakness and fatigue, she has to undergo enteroclysis to see the exact position of obstruction.
Id this is more and troublesome she may need a Surgery to correct this.
This is usually not the side effect of any of the medicines you mentioned.
I find this answer helpful
