A prospective comparative study was conducted to determine the effect of isoniazid prophylaxis on the incidence of active tuberculosis among Thai HIV-infected patients for 1 year. Among those 36 HIV-infected patients without prophylaxis, the incidence of active tuberculosis was 2.7 per cent while in 10 HIV-infected patients with isoniazid prophylaxis, there was no incidence of active tuberculosis during the first year.Entities:
