Patients were assigned to one of three treatment regimens according to a randomized schedule of 1-Nine months regimen; initial two months of [2RHSRH7] Rifaimpicin 0.45 g/d-0.6 gm/d + isoniazid 0.3 gm/d + streptomyein 0.75 gmd-l gm/d. Continuation phase seven months of Rifampiein 0.45 gm/d-0.6 gm/d + isoniazid 0.3 gm/d. 2-Six months regimen [2RH-ISZ/RH4]; initial two months of Rifampicin 0.45 gm/d-0.6 gm/d + isoniazid 0.3 gm/d + streptomycin 0.75 gm/d-I gm/d ' pyrazinaminde 1.5 gm/d-2 gm/d.

Continuation phase four months of Rifampiein 0.45 gmfd-0.6 guild + isoniazid 0.3 gm/d. 118 patients completed the course of treatment, 7 patients defaulted, 4 patients were excluded because they could not tolerate the effects of side effects of drugs, and 6 patients remained bacillary exceretors i.e. became chronic cases.
