- Abstract: Tuberculosis disease is directly proportional to a country’s socio-economic situation and standard of living. Studies have shown that in Mongolia the inflation, unemployment, poverty and migration that have emerged as a consequence of the socio-economic changes in 1990s have influenced the spread of the disease.The Global Fund to Fight AIDS and Tuberculosis Project was initiated by the UN and launched in our country in 2003. In relation to an expected completion of the project in 2016, the need has been determined to include the funds required for AIDS and tuberculosis (TB) treatment into the state budget and, therefore, the necessity to conduct a detailed study of TB drug usage to validate this need has become the basis of this research.[3,5,6] Materials and methods: Patient history of 200 inpatients in (NCCD). Registration of drug expenditure of pulmonary tuberculosis and multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDRTb) and statistic survey data.As WHO recommended determining drug consumption by disease and mathematic statistic method.
