Diagnosis of allergy to tuberculostatic agents

Abstract

The study of the side effects of anti-tuberculosis drugs is fraught with significant difficulties, since in the context of combined chemotherapy it is sometimes difficult to determine the effect of which drug substance should be attributed to the appearance of certain symptoms. It is somewhat easier to determine the "culprit" of toxic side effects, for some of their manifestations are quite specific for different tuberculostatic drugs. It is much more difficult when signs of drug allergy appear, the clinical manifestations of which do not have specific features for this or that drug, and in rare cases may even appear on the administration of some drugs when sensitized to others.
