摘要
Tuberculosis (TB) is an increasing public health concern in India. The development of resistance to two of the most effective medications, rifampicin, and isoniazid, is the largest worldwide challenge in the management of TB. An epidemiological indicator used to evaluate the effectiveness of the TB management program is the initial medication resistance level. Our search for published papers in English using Medical Subject Heading phrases was conducted through PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus. We also looked through several official sources to learn the most recent information on multi-drug resistance in India. Multi-drug resistance tuberculosis is a significant risk to human health globally. Stigmatization or discrimination of those who have TB or who are impacted by it can make the disease more difficult to manage medically and socially, and it is ultimately responsible for missed opportunities for diagnosis and treatment, interruptions of care, and unsuccessful outcomes. Eliminating TB is complicated by stigma.
