Hi,
You may conceive during the treatment but P-zide is not safe during pregnancy. Although pregnancy can occur during the course of treatment for tuberculosis however the prescribed antibiotic P-zide can cause harmful effects like spina bifida in the unborn child so this drug should be stopped and an alternate effective but a safer antibiotic needs to be prescribed by your doctor.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
