 Improving TB Drug Management - Accelerating DOTS Expansion
The incidence of tuberculosis (TB) is increasing in many parts of the world, and partner organizations of Stop TB recognize the significant role drug management plays in ensuring that safe, effective, quality drugs are available when and where patients need them. The main objective of the survey discussed in this paper was to identify specific problems in connection with drug management and availability of drugs for treating tuberculosis (TB) at the central and peripheral levels in two developing countries, Republic of Congo and India (the state of Uttar Pradesh).

 Frequently asked questions about the 4 drug fixed-dose combination tablet recommended by WHO
The majority of tuberculosis patients worldwide are still treated with single drugs, or with 2-drug fixed-dose combinations (FDCs). To improve tuberculosis treatment, 2- and 3-drug FDCs were recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) as part of the DOTS strategy. Recently, however, a 4-drug FDC containing 150 mg rifampicin, 75 mg isoniazid, 400 mg pyrazinamide, and 275 mg ethambutol was added to the WHO Model List of Essential Drugs, which made possible an intensive-phase treatment for tuberculosis based fully on an FDC. This document is intended to answer frequently asked questions about the recently introduced 4-drug FDC, but many of the issues are also relevant to the 2- and 3-drug FDCs.

 Stop TB Annual Report 2001
Since 1993 when the World Health Organization (WHO) declared tuberculosis (TB) to be a global health emergency, the international community has struggled to find the means to control the growing pandemic. Meanwhile, TB has continued to exact its remorseless toll, killing nearly 2 million people every year and developing into active disease in 6 million others. At the same time, the rising incidence of both multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) and of TB/HIV coinfection posed serious new challenges to the response effort.
