Abstract

In 2018, at the WHO Assembly, tuberculosis was recognized as a disease that claims a large number of human lives. One of the important factors of treatment ineffectiveness is the identification of extensive destructive processes with bacterial release, which often leads to the development of drug resistance. Thus, according to N.G. Mystikova (2019), the WHO European Region has the highest incidence rate of tuberculosis with multidrug resistance to rifampicin (MDR/PP-TB) at 14 cases per 100,000 population. Numerous studies by domestic and foreign authors have been devoted to the issue of drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis [1-3, 7, 8]. In the Republic of Uzbekistan, one of the urgent problems of phthisiology is the increase in cases of drug-resistant tuberculosis [5,6]. The current epidemiological situation of tuberculosis incidence worldwide is characterized by the spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis pathogens, which reduces the effectiveness of treatment and increases mortality from this infection.
