- Alternative regimen (4): Fomivirsen intravitreal injection - for relapses
- Note: keep a maintenance dose of Valganciclovir 900 mg PO qd until CD4 >100/mm³
Ocular tuberculosis
- 1. Adult patients
- 1.1 Intensive phase
- Preferred regimen: Isoniazid 5 mg/kg (max: 300 mg) PO qd for 2 months AND Rifampin 10 mg/kg (max: 600 mg) PO qd for 2 months AND Pyrazinamide 15–30 mg/kg (max: 2 g) PO qd for 2 months AND Ethambutol 15-20 mg/kg (max: 1 g) PO qd for 2 months
