Tuberculosis Dispensary

A Tuberculosis Dispensary is a healthcare facility focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of tuberculosis (TB), a contagious bacterial infection primarily affecting the lungs. These dispensaries provide specialized services such as screening tests, medication distribution, and health education about TB. They play a vital role in managing the disease, especially in areas with high prevalence. By offering targeted care, they help reduce transmission and support patients in their recovery. Overall, tuberculosis dispensaries are essential for public health, aiming to control and eliminate TB in communities.
