Multi-drug tuberculosis (MDR-TB) patients across Mumbai are being forced to run from pillar to post in search of medicines that are not available at DOT centres and chemists. One direct observed therapy (DOT) centre has in fact placed a cardboard displaying the names of unavailable medicines.

Pradya Alikhan, an Oladriver from Wadala, has visited more than 100 chemists across Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) region in search of four anti-TB medications, including Linezolid, Clofazimine, Cycloserine and Moxifloxacin, so that his wife’s MDR-TB treatment can continue.
