Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
I have gone through the x ray report you have mentioned.
This x ray report is normal. It is clearly mentioned that patient is not having any respiratory infiltration, consolidation, mass like lesion.
So no need to worry for tuberculosis or any other lung diseases.
So no drugs (anti tubercular or antibiotics) required for pulmonary component.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your patient. Thanks.
