Drug-Sensitive Tuberculosis (DS-TB)
What is Drug-Sensitive Tuberculosis (DS-TB)
In Homeopathy, Drug-Sensitive TB is understood as a TB infection where the TB germs still respond well to standard anti-TB medicines.
This is the most common and most treatable form of TB, and with proper medical therapy plus guided homeopathic support, recovery is usually smooth and complete.
Homeopathy focuses on boosting your immunity, reducing symptoms, speeding recovery, healing lung tissues, and preventing relapse — while your medicines kill the infection.
“Drug-sensitive TB is highly treatable.
With homeopathic support, your lungs heal faster, your immunity becomes stronger, and full recovery becomes a safe reality.”
Drug-sensitive TB means the TB bacteria in your body respond to first-line TB medicines such as:
- Isoniazid (INH)
- Rifampicin
- Ethambutol
- Pyrazinamide
This means:
- TB strain is not resistant
- T The reatment success rates are very high
Recovery is smooth when medicines + homeopathy + nutrition are combined
Homeopathy supports healing by enhancing immunity, vitality, lung capacity, and emotional strength.
