Hi, Based on the lab test results given she seems to be suffering from tuberculosis for which her doctor has advised the Monte. Monotone Kid tablet contains isoniazid, rifampicin and vitamin B6 as active ingredients. It is commonly used for the treatment and prevention of tuberculosis. Generally, it is well tolerated by most of the child Chat Doctor.  You can start giving the treatment as it effectively eradicates the infection. Hope I have answered your query.
