Dr. Brahma Prakash

Normal tuberculosis (i. E not drug resistant) can be treated along with presence of pregnancy. Not to worry if one has been given rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol and pyrazinamide for treatment of tb along with pregnancy. So no need for abortion but regular consultation with gynaecologist for monitoring fetal well being growth and development is needed.

If you are only on these two medicine since begining then your treatment is wrong. Need pyrazinamide in first 2 months of your treatment and also dose of ethambutol is not as per yout weight. Get urine examination routine and culture to r/o urine infection.
