My mother is suffering from tubercolosis in waist. She has been advised to take AKT 4 and R Cine 150. Ever since she started taking the dose she is experiencing itches and rashes in the whole body.

i want to know while taking a akt4 tablet is it possible to conceive... if yes then is there any side effect to a kid ## AKT-4 contains Ethambutol, Isoniazid, Pyrazinimide and Rifampin, it is a combination of medications used to treat Tuberculosis.

There is always a risk of passing the TB infection on to the baby, as well. Common side effects to these medications may include: nausea, diarrhea, skin rash and vertical nystagmus.

My Aunt has been diagonosed with possible tuberclosis of the rib bone which was recently surgically removed. However, PCR for tuberclosis performed on blood sample a month back was negative. Now without confirming for sure the doctor has prescribed ATK4 as the report says that it is possibly tuberclosis. Considering that she is actually not suffering from tuberclosis then if she takes doses of atk4 what will be its possible side effects on her? ## I have tuberculosis in my backbone (spine) and inside my neck from last 1 year. I was taking akt4 for the past year and I plan to start taking akt3. What are the side effects of akt3? Please reply. {edited for privacy}.
