Is Conception Safe When The Partner Is Being Treated For Bone TB?

Hi, my husband is suffering from bone TB and is on TB medication for last 4-5 months (first 3 months on AKT-4 and last 1.5 month on AKT-2). How safe is it to plan a baby with his medication on? Are there any side effects of this medication on the baby?
