HiT hanks for your queryBased on your query my opinion is1. Recommended treatment for Tuberculosis is six months.2. Since you have completed four months of treatment, to be cured of disease you need to stick to the same regime for two more months before you can stop.3. Once you complete six months regime you will be tested as and depending on the test results you will, can decide on further course of action.4. Though you are symptom free now, you need to continue as the microorganisms may persist to manifest as latent infection later in life or become resistant to medicines due to inadequate dosage.5. Resistance might cause complicated TB. Hope this helpsRegards
