My cousin was diagnosed with latent TB a few months ago and just finished her treatment. We're all relieved but also curious about what comes next. What happens after latent TB treatment, is she completely fine now?

Once you finish your latent TB treatment course, the inactive bacteria in your body are successfully cleared, preventing it from ever turning into active TB. You can go back to your normal routine without any worries. Just focus on eating healthy and keeping your immunity strong now.

I completed my preventive treatment for latent TB a few years ago. My doctor explained that I don't need any more tests or treatments once the course is complete. I have been perfectly healthy and active ever since, so please do not worry.

After the treatment is over, your body might feel a bit tired from the medications. Drinking fresh coconut water and eating simple home-cooked food will help your liver and digestion recover quickly. Make sure to get a final sign-off from your doctor.

It is good to know that the treatment is preventive. Do we need to do another skin test or blood test after finishing the medicines to confirm it is gone, or is the completed course enough?
