I'm taking inh treatment for a positive tb test. is it safe to get pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I would wait: You should be done in 6-12months with your inh, and it would be prudent to wait if possible. If you are already pregnant on inh , the risk of affecting the baby is low, but present, discuss with your infectious disease doctor.
