Abstract
Background Therapeutic drug ranges (TDR) for standard anti-tuberculosis (TB) treatment have been determined based on expected drug levels at least 2 hours after taking the dose. In this study we constructed TDR for TB drug levels based on minimizing drug toxicity and maximizing treatment effectiveness.
