Original Article INFLUENCE OF DRUG SUSCEPTIBILITY ON TREATMENT OUTCOME AND SUSCEPTIBILITY PROFILE OF ‘FAILURES’ TO CATEGORY II REGIMEN Pauline Joseph, V. Chandrasekaran, A. Thomas, P.G. Gopi, R. Rajeswari, R. Balasubramanian, R. Subramani, N. Selvakumar and T. Santha (Original received on 7.11.2005; Revised version received on 10.4.2006; Accepted on 13.4.2006) Summary Objective: To assess the influence of drug resistance on treatment outcome among patients treated with Category-II regimen and document drug susceptibility pattern of “Failures” to this regimen. Design: A retrospective analysis of patients registered from May 1999 through December 2004. Results: Treatment success was 42% among 572 patients and was similar among patients with fully susceptible or resistant but non-MDR organisms (41% of 254 and 40% of 128 patients, respectively). Among 49 MDR-TB patients, 27% had successful treatment outcome. The failure rates among patients with fully susceptible, resistant but non-MDR and MDR bacilli, were 6%, 12% and 27% respectively. Default was significantly higher among males (53% vs. 34%: p
