Tuberculosis remains one of the most significant infectious diseases on the planet. Hundreds of thousands of people are infected with it every year, and tens of thousands die. Despite substantial progress in diagnostic methods, the most important problem and main task facing clinicians is the treatment of tuberculosis. The uniqueness of tuberculosis lies in the fact that in treating a patient, in addition to using a combination of antibacterial and chemotherapeutic agents, a wide range of non-medical treatment methods must be employed. The medical-social support plays a huge role in curing tuberculosis, allowing the patient to successfully undergo the entire period of chemotherapy. The author has compiled unique material related to the organization of tuberculosis chemotherapy, the prospects for creating new anti-tuberculosis drugs. Chapters of the guide dedicated to the peculiarities of organizing tuberculosis treatment in patients with concomitant diseases, conducting treatment in special situations such as tuberculous meningitis, treating tuberculosis in individuals with kidney involvement, and in pregnant women are based on extensive personal clinical experience. The publication is intended for phthisiologists and specialists providing assistance to patients with tuberculosis and concomitant diseases, healthcare organizers, as well as clinical residents and medical students.
