Content Summary :
The 5-year old has been on TB drugs since June 2006. She takes three pills each day. The dosage of pills given to children depends on the child’s age and weight. To be fully cured, children infected with TB must follow a treatment regimen lasting eight months. The first 60 days of treatment is the intensive phase, and a hospital stay is often required to ensure adherence to the treatment and to monitor for any adverse reactions to the medicines. The commitment of Grace Children’s Hospital medical staff is apparent. Despite the challenge of a lack of pediatric formulations for TB drugs, the staff carefully adjust the adult formulations that they have. Doctors and nurses monitor the children carefully, and the children receive daily meals and have a dedicated teacher who makes sure they continue their lessons even while they are in the hospital. Through the TB treatment and care program, children like Nahomie have found a caring family, and they can expect to resume their lives as normal energetic children again soon.
