Hello TB Nurse colleagues:

We have a local jurisdiction looking for patient education material (patient facing) that addresses some of the new treatment regimens - BPaL(M) and/or HPMZ.

I’ve shared the WA DoH 2 pager info sheet on BPaL with them but wondered if there may be other patient ed sheet examples out there now that this regimen is being used more.

Thank you!!

Ann
