Detailed Description: Introduction The objective of the study was to compare the compliance and the side effects of a short course to treatment of latent tuberculosis infection during 3 months with the standard course for 6 months

Methods Prospective comparative randomized and open trial of patients with positive TST and the suitable criteria for treatment in accordance with the guidelines of the CDC excluding HIV infection the group I was assigned to isoniazid H at a dose of 300 mg per day for 6 months and the group II was assigned to isoniazid at a dose of 300 mg per day plus rifampin R 600 mg per day for 3 months The patients were followed for five years

Results 105 patients were included of which 9 refused the treatment 45 patients were included in the group I and 51 patients in the group II Both groups were comparable at base level The hepatotoxicity was 44 in the group 6H and 29 in the group 3HR p 007 The hepatotoxicity was severe in 67 in the group 6H and 58 in the group 3HR these obliged the suspension of treatment in 44 and 19 respectively p NS The proportion of patients who completed the study treatment was 756 of the patients in the group 6H and 902 in the group 3HR p 005 Only a case of tuberculosis was detected in the second month treatment with 6H

Conclusion In the treatment of latent tuberculosis infection a short course with isoniazid plus rifampin during 3 months shown better compliance with a lower percentage of abandonment that the course 6H Tolerance is similar in the two courses
