Uses / Indications

  • Tubersol is used to screen for tuberculosis infection by measuring immune response to TB bacteria. The Mantoux test helps identify individuals who may have been exposed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is commonly used in healthcare settings, schools, and workplaces for TB screening. The 5TU/0.1ml strength is standard for intradermal testing.

Side Effects

  • After administration, Tubersol typically causes a localized skin reaction at the injection site within 48–72 hours. The reaction appears as a raised, hardened area or swelling, which is measured to determine the test result. Mild redness or itching may occur but usually resolves on its own. The test does not provide immunity or protection against TB.

Precautions & Warnings

  • Store Tubersol vials refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C and protect from light. Avoid freezing or exposure to extreme temperatures. Use the vial only if the solution is clear and free of particles. Discard unused portions after opening to maintain sterility. Handle with care to prevent contamination.

Avoid Interactions

  • Tubersol may interact with recent live vaccines or immunosuppressive therapies, potentially affecting test results. Avoid administering the test to individuals with severe skin conditions or active TB symptoms. Recent vaccinations or infections may temporarily alter immune responses. Consult a healthcare provider if unsure about timing or interactions.
