Presently there is no vaccine except BCG which is given to all new borns. If if u have taken proper anti TB drugs for proper period then u r considered cured normally

There is no vaccine to prevent TB but if you have dry cough for more than 2 weeks you should consult a pulmonologist.

Sorry .No there is no any vaccine available after tb

Pulmonologist / Lung Specialist in Abbottabad - Asst. Prof. Dr. Mohammad Yasin

Sorry, there is no vaccine which can prevent TB relapse (recurrence) at this age. However every individual and especially post TB patient and patient with weak immune system should try best to avoid inhalation from lung TB patient who is having TB germs in his/her sputum.
