Regarding your question

what is the treatment of TB


Many antibiotics are used to treat TB, such as: isoniazid and rifampicin.
Treatment may vary from one to several years.
The treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis is approximately six months and is used in many antibiotics.
Four antibiotics are given to contain rifampicin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide and ethambutol in the first two months.
In the last four months, rifampicin and isoniazid are given only with the possibility of adding ethambutol as an alternative in case of resistance to isoniazid in the last four months.
  If resistant tuberculosis is detected, treatment is recommended for 18-24 months using at least four active antibiotics
