Summary
This study looks at how the cholesterol-lowering drug atorvastatin behaves in the body when taken together with standard tuberculosis (TB) medicines. Researchers will measure drug levels in the blood of 80 adults with drug-sensitive pulmonary TB to find the best dose of atorvastatin to add to TB treatment. The goal is to understand how these drugs interact, not to test a cure.
