Totally Drug-Resistant and Extremely Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis: The Same Disease? [PDF]
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2012 The emergence of totally drug-resistant (TDR) tuberculosis in India and Iran has been recently discussed in the literature. The 15 TDR tuberculosis cases previously described in Iran were cited as resistant to “all first-line drugs (FLDs) and second-line drugs (SLDs)” [1, 2].
