Pain on your left side while taking TB (tuberculosis) medication may have several causes, including side effects of the drugs affecting your liver or spleen, muscular strain, or, less commonly, complications from TB itself. It is important not to ignore this symptom. You should contact your doctor promptly for a physical examination and blood tests to check liver function and rule out other causes.

  1. Possible Side Effect: The pain on your left side could potentially be a side effect of the AKT-3 Kit, which includes Rifampicin, Ethambutol, and Isoniazid. These medications can cause various side effects, including abdominal pain.

  2. Immediate Action: Monitor the pain closely. If it persists or worsens, consult your healthcare provider promptly to rule out any serious complications.

  3. Recommendation: Avoid alcohol and ensure regular follow-ups with your doctor to monitor the medication's effects on your body.
