Pregnancy Ater TB Treatment

11/24/2009

Question:

I just finished my TB treatment (isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol for two months, then isoniazid and rifampicin for a further four months) and two days later I got pregnant. Therefore, I`d like to know if all the antibiotics I took could have a negative affect on my pregnancy. Thanks!
