What is the recurrence rate after bedaquiline cure, and can it be completely cured?

The mechanism of action of Bedaquiline (Bedaquiline) is by inhibiting ATP synthase (ATP synthase) during the cell wall synthesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, thereby interfering with the energy metabolism of the bacteria and inhibiting its growth and reproduction. Therefore, bedaquiline can be used to treat various types of tuberculosis.

The recurrence rate after cure depends on many factors, including the patient's health status, management during treatment, drug resistance, environmental factors, etc. In general, bedaquiline is effective in treating tuberculosis, but not all patients are completely cured. Some patients may experience relapse after treatment, which may be due to drug resistance, inadequate treatment, or environmental factors. In order to reduce the recurrence rate, patients should undergo standardized treatment and management under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, it is also very important to regularly monitor and evaluate the patient's health status. In summary, bedaquiline is effective in treating tuberculosis, but not all patients are completely cured.
