Do nothing.
The importance of the bcg vaccine is for initial days of infancy. Then there is no use of taking it.
Don't worry.
You can consult me at Lybrate for proper guidance and homoeopathic treatment.

Can I take tb vaccine now? I am 22 year old and I think I breathe in tb bacteria because a tb person was in the room coughing and also the room was closed with ac on and there was no sunlight.

You should not worry at all. Because minimal rise of liver enzymes can occur due to many unimportant causes like heavy meal or fatty meal, stress etc. Not to get worried.
