The bacteria invades the alveoli of the lungs where it hides in the macrophages that help clean pathogens out of the lungs. Once in the macrophages, the bacteria is very resistent to treatment, which usually consists of multi-drug regimes for months.The current protocol consists of the following: Isoniazid, Rifampicin, Pyrazinamide and Ethambutol for two months then just Isoniazid and Rifampicin for a further four months.However, Mycobacterium is evolving to be resistent to these drugs, and some people have forms of tuberculosis that cannot be treated with medications at all.
