ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking at the effectiveness and safety of two herbal treatments, BaidiZiyin Pill and ShenqiYifei Pill, when added to standard Western medicine for patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). The goal is to see if these herbal treatments can help improve symptoms, speed up the time it takes for patients to stop producing TB bacteria in their sputum (the mucus from the lungs), and reduce any side effects from the main TB medications.
To participate in this trial, you need to be between 18 and 65 years old and have a confirmed diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis. You should not have started TB treatment before or have only been on it for less than a week. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study for any changes in their symptoms and overall health. This trial is currently recruiting and aims to provide valuable information on how these herbal pills might support traditional TB treatments.
