Frequently Asked
Questions

World Health Organization (2013)
1) What is Tuberculosis?
If you are pregnant and have active TB, you should start
treatment as soon as TB is suspected.
Although the TB drugs used during treatment cross the
placenta, they do not appear to have any harmful effects
on the fetus.
TB medications such as isoniazid, rifampin, and
ethambutol are often used for treatment during
pregnancy.
While dealing with TB during pregnancy is not easy,
proper treatment is crucial for the health of the mother
and the baby.
