Highlight of the Month
This month's highlight is Medication Tracker: The 3 Months of Daily Isoniazid Plus Rifampin Schedule for Latent Tuberculosis (TB) Infection,
from the CDC Division of Tuberculosis Elimination. Clinicians can use the tracker with patients that are prescribed the three months of daily isoniazid plus rifampin (3HR) regimen for the treatment of latent TB infection. The tracker includes space to enter medication details, intake, and doctor/clinic contact information. The material includes a checklist of signs and symptoms that may develop while using the 3HR regimen as well.
Medication trackers are also available for the three months of once-weekly isoniazid plus rifapentine (3HP) regimen and the four months of daily rifampin (4R) regimen.
