What Causes Unremitting And Constant Headache After Starting On Mediastinal TB Medication?

Hi Doctor, I just started the continuation phase of TB medication for mediastinal TB. 5 days after starting the continuation phase (Rifampicin 150mg and Isoniazide 75mg) I had an abrupt onset of mild to moderate tension type headache that is unremitting and constant. Sometimes is located on my forward and temporal region bilaterally and at other times over the back of the head. ive had it constantly for 8 days now. The only time I don t notice it is when I m asleep. Sometimes I feel nauseated. I take the fixed dose combination -5 tablets daily. What do you think it is? Is it a drug side effect?

Hi,

TB medicine causes few unremitting and constant headaches. It will be cured permanently by homeopathy treatment.
For medicine you can take:
Tuberculinum 0/2, 0/3
16 Dose each
OD X 32 days
(100 ml LM potency)
Report to your doctor after 7 days.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. A. Amin, Homeopath
