I was prescribed Sirturo 20mg Tablets to treat drug-resistant TB, and I'm curious about other people's experiences. The drug is known for its effectiveness against tough TB strains, but the side effects list looks extensive. I've been taking it with food as instructed, but I'm not sure how to manage potential side effects or what to expect. Has anyone else here taken Sirturo? If so, what was your experience like? What kind of side effects did you encounter and how did you handle them? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated! The more I know, the better I feel for navigating this treatment. Also, I'm wondering if anyone has had liver problems while on this medication? And what can be done to prevent or mitigate it? I've seen in the documentation that the liver is one of the body's systems that can be affected.
