    Document: In this study, we first observed that the median duration between newly diagnosed TB and the first CM consultation was 1068 days. Many TB patients complicated with long-term respiratory discomforts sought CM services. We then determined that Ma-Xing-Gan-Shi-Tang, Bulbus Fritillariae Thunbergii (Bei-Mu), Radix Platycodonis (Jie-Geng), and Semen Armeniacae (Xing-Ren) were the core prescriptions for patients with TB in Taiwan. To the best of our knowledge, this report describes the first nationwide population-based cohort study investigating CM utilization patterns among TB patients complicated with long-term respiratory discomforts. However, whether CM combined with modern conventional medicine has beneficial effects or risks requires further investigation.
