Answer 1

sir, your wife should be under close supervision of a doctor that specializes in pregnancies (an ob/gyn). she must have been diagnosed with tuberculosis, judging by the prescription list. this medicine is highly volatile to the liver. pregnant women are treated for TB under a doctors care. they will check her blood for certain levels. please take her to a doctor that will follow her throughout her pregnancy. she needs this. for the sake of her and her baby. good luck.
