8 The interim guidance lists five conditions that must be in place if bedaquiline is used to treat adults with MDR-TB: Effective treatment and monitoring: Treatment must be closely monitored for effectiveness and safety, using sound treatment and management protocols approved by relevant national authorities. Proper patient inclusion: Special caution is required when bedaquiline is used in people aged 65 and over, and in adults living with HIV. Use in pregnant women and children is not advised. Informed consent: Patients must be fully aware of the potential benefits and harms of the new drug, and give documented informed consent before embarking on treatment. Adherence to WHO recommendations: All principles on which WHO-recommended MDR-TB treatment regimens are based, must be followed, bedaquiline alone should not be introduced into a regimen in which the companion drugs are failing to show effectiveness. Active pharmacovigilance and management of adverse events: Active pharmacovigilance measures must be in place to ensure early detection and proper management of adverse drug reactions and potential interactions with other drugs. 8 WHO interim guidance on the use of bedaquiline to treat MDR-TB
