For latent TB, the preferred treatment is daily administration of isoniazid (INH) alone for 6-12 months. This is effective in preventing the progression of latent TB to active disease. Daily administration of INH for 9 months is the standard treatment course, but it can be extended to 12 months in certain cases.
