Hi,
R-cinex is a combined medicine (rifampicin+ isoniazid) commonly prescribed for the treatment of tuberculosis. Common side effects of rifampicin include orange discoloration of the urine / saliva / sputum, flu like symptoms, and liver dysfunction. Common side effects of isoniazid include peripheral neuritis, hemolysis, and liver dysfunction. You should take vitamin-B6 containing supplements to prevent isoniazid associated peripheral neuritis. Yes, you can conceive while taking these medications as they do not cause any harmful effects on your unborn child.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
