Abstract
The complete elimination of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the etiologic agent of TB, from TB patients is a complicated process that takes a long time. The excessive immune inflammatory response of the host for a long time causes irreversible organic damage to the lungs and liver. Current antibiotic-based treatment options involve multiple complex drug combinations, often targeting different physiological processes of Mtb. Given the high incidence of post-tuberculosis lung disease, we should also consider the immunomodulatory properties of other drugs when selecting drug combinations.
