Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Tuberculosis most commonly affect lungs. And cough is the most common symptom. Treatment of tuberculosis is long and should be taken for at least 6-8 months. You have started treatment since January, so you have taken Chat Doctor.  And AKT 4 is standard anti tuberculosis treatment. So in my opinion, you should get done fresh chest x-ray and sputum examination for TB. If both are negative then no need for further treatment. Following dietary advice should be followed in tb patient. 1. Start high protein diet. 2. Start multivitamin tablet containing folic acid, pyridoxine, vitamin b12, zinc. 3. Start antioxidants too. 4. Avoid oily and spicy food.
