Brief Answer:
Side effects mainly liver related

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case and your wife needs treatment for nine months to one year. Tuberculosis medication are safe for long time, and do not have much side effects. I am listing common side effects.
1. liver hepatitis
2. jaundice
3. abdominal pain
4. blood count low
5. allergic reactions
so I would recommend you to take LIV 52 tablet one daily to improve your liver strength.
Also her urine color will change to red so do not afraid about this.
I hope this answer will be helpful. Let me know if there is any other follow up questions.
thanks.
