Overview

Risk factors for multi-drug resistant tuberculosis include exposure to an individual with MDR-TB, previous TB treatment, HIV infection, and a low socioeconomic status.

Risk Factors

  • The risk factor for developing multi-drug resistant tuberculosis include:[1][2][3]
  • Exposure to a patient with MDR-TB
  • Previous TB treatment
  • HIV infection
  • Previous incarceration
  • Failed TB treatment
  • Relapse following standard TB treatment
  • Low income and low socioeconomic class
  • Individuals that come from areas of the world where drug-resistant TB is common
  • Individuals that have spent time with someone known to have drug-resistant TB disease
  • Adverse reactions of the drugs used in the treatment of tuberculosis contribute to the cease of the drug regimen and increases the probability of multi-drug resistance.
  • Direct observed treatment plays an important role to avoid drop-outs from tuberculosis medical regimen, which is an important risk factor for developing resistance to the standard medical regimen.
