- Abstract
An editorial focuses on the critical issue of stockouts of first-line anti-TB drugs within India's Revised National Tuberculosis Control Programme (RNTCP). It highlights how these shortages are leading to significant treatment disruptions, increased drug resistance, and potential setbacks in TB control efforts. It calls for improved supply chain management and urgent action to prevent further negative impacts on TB treatment and elimination goals.
