Dear Salvatore,

I am interested in the comment by Elyzabeth Duncan (LML Aug. 29th, 2010).  I have not heard from her for a long time!

Good on her to define the change in prednisolone effectiveness.  I would say the prednisolone changes the rifampicin effectiveness.  Can anyone tell us which is correct?  As I know that when I give prednisolone I must  MUST give the MDT for longer.
